Wow, the fact that you can't move this 'Maxell' walkman when playing music kinda defeats the object, no?

[Перевод] В 1985 году компания Maxell создала множество роботов в натуральную величину для своей неудачной рекламы дискет

Автор блога Such Bad Tech Ads вспоминает необычную рекламную кампанию 80-х гг., которую запустил производитель дискет Maxell. Для ролика создали целый парк роботов, а некоторые из них попали в Музей компьютеров.

🎉 In 1985, #Maxell thought life-size #robots devouring #floppy #disks was a killer ad idea. 🤖💾 Fast-forward to now, and it's just a relic of bad #tech marketing—imagine thinking robots are the future when your floppies can't even hold a single cat meme. 🙄

In 1985 Maxell built a bunch of life-size robots for its bad floppy ad

A rough start to what would later become one of my favorite tech ads from the 80s.

@thomasfuchs One day the Compact Floppy Disks / CF-2 will rise again. Mark my words! And as an adapter, hell, you could fit a CF card in there.

(I bought one of these drives and used it as D2 on a used Apple IIe I grabbed from the local newspaper classifieds back in 1987 or so -- only ever had four blank disks, so it didn't get a lot of use. Was novel, though, especially here in the states.)

UPDATE: Oh, I wrote a blog post about this a few years back:
