Oh baby. Nothing gets me more excited than a bubble mailer full of floppy disks. šŸ„µšŸ„°

For what I paid, if only 20 out of 60 are good, Iā€™ll be happy. šŸ¤ž

Iā€™ve never seen a 2MB 3.5ā€ floppy before. šŸ˜³ There were 2 in there.

@idle_automaton Sometimes when they were sold unformatted, they would be labelled with their ā€œunformattedā€ capacity of 2.0MB.

(Although, I donā€™t know how they came up with an ā€œunformattedā€ capacity, because without any kind of format, itā€™s just a sheet of magnetic particles with no organizationā€¦)
