You guys with your stacked terabyte HDD’s. I’ll stick to the 1.44 MB not so floppy disks, conveniently strung together with a little help of ARJ. Even has a read only switch for eternal storage. Who needs blockchains.

you techies with your advanced devices. pfffft

still rockin my TRS-80 and C64 cassette drives.

my Columbia IBM clone has a cassette interface too but i never used it. those full height 5.25 floppies were the bomb.

EDIT the TRS-80 also had several 8 inch floppies hooked to it at one point.


Oh those times...

Code:
LOAD ZAXXON,8,1

<10mins waiting, enjoying sound of tape slowly moving>

LOAD ERROR

Afternoon spoiled.
