Last time I was in Colorado, I ripped all of my old C64 disks--over 100
of them.  With focus, the whole process took a total of about 4 hours,
I'd say.  I did it with Star Commander, my 1541 commodore disk drive,
and PC serial to 1541 cable.

So depending on what kind of system you had, it probably requires some
kind of hardware hack.  If you search around google, you might find
someone who has already done this.
