And for bonus points, who remembers SLEUTH (on the standalone diagnostic
tapes) where you could load up a "butterfly seek" test going from the
innermost cylinder, outermost cylinder, IC+1, OC-1, IC+2, OC-2, etc?
You could watch the action with the 7925 :-)  SLEUTH was a wicked tool,
sort of a BASIC programming language for disc drive sadists :-)
