Just thought one of you guys running an OOOLLLDDD Dos box as a CNC thingie and
already had a drive might want the disks for the price of shipping...
Yep, you never know. Just a couple years ago, I was hunting down 5.25"
floppy drives on E-Bay and was glad to find them. They were the only thing that
would work in our old Siemens phone switches. We had an old DOS machine with a
bit copier (so that we could copy backup floppys) that I wouldn't have sold for
$10,000.
I still have at least 50 5.25" drives if you need any more.
Junior had a client to whom I was able to provide a couple of the
lower density 3.5" drives - the equipment couldn't handle the 1.44 meg
drives. Older welding robots also needed the lower density.
