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...

Afternoon spoiled.
While in my head it goes:
Peek'n Poke, Peek'n Poke, Peek'n Poke...
all the time

Today i finally jumped it and threw my money at an Asus Zenbook UM431 with a Ryzen5 (Good bye, Intel - i hope i won't miss u).
Mainly because of the slightly bigger dimensions than the newer UM433 models and the better bottom vent placement.
At about $600 without windoze, it's OK for me, but that's still some fiat i didn't invest into corn, on the other hand.
