I've succeeded in copying the files from floppy.
Thanks to everyone for the
great suggestions!
I used a USB-to-serial adapter, combined with PuTTY and the usual serial
tools (DB-9 to DB-25 adapter, gender changer, and null modem). I even dug
out my AT&T PC 6300 MS DOS manual for details on writing BAT files (although
the main script had a bad habit of exiting after the first file got copied).
I wound up calling a 3 line script separately for each file to be copied
over, and using PuTTY's scrolling history to save the files.
I've collected these and other old Usenet maps here:

I hope to display these (and hand out a few copies!) in Seattle this week.
Does anyone have anything put together that can easily do the "leroy" thing
described here:
http://www.stargatemuseum.org/maps/032383.GRF.txt
and produce the graphical map it contains?
Hi,
if nobody has a "leroy" at hand, I could give it a go using a slightly
more modern graph drawing stuff (starting from the same files). Just
shout.
