   Well, you could always use a Catweasel board and dmk2cw from the cw2dmk   
   package, but as long as your floppy controller supports 256-byte   
   sectors, I don't see why there couldn't be a program that does low-level   
   access to your floppy controller (just like the emulators, hint hint) to   
   write the disks.  Or even full track writes directly from a .DMK file.   
      
   And why are you so set on doing this with an old Tandy 1000?  What's   
   wrong with using a regular generic PC running MSDOS?  CPU speed   
   shouldn't be an issue; that's what floppy controller chips and DMA   
   channels are for.  You just aren't likely to be able do it with a USB   
   floppy drive.
