How come the floppy reader can make such good sounds ?

its a combination of the Reader-head position and the speed and direction of the Magnetic-disc turning. i think..

in the bad old days, they used a voice coil to position the head on a hard disk drive. looks as if it is making a comeback

It's absolutely possible, you just have to think like a geek (and like electronics)..
You know? Ask the question 'why not?' instead of asking 'why?!?!' ![]()
