1) Yes, I remember 8 inch floppies. I even remember changeable 20MB back up disks that had to be wheeled to the server on a dolly.
2) Yes I have 720K 3 & ½ inch floppies. I even have several working 5 & ¼ inch floppies and a working drive. What do you need them for? 3) Yes, my wife made me through out nearly everything when I moved, but I have some stuff still lingering in the garage ;) ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Schwartz Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2007 1:05 PM To: Main PLUG discussion list Subject: Re: Old Floppies On 4/27/07, Jim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Gene Holmerud wrote: >> Are they 720kb?
