Home Forums Gear Free Classifieds Floppy Disks (DISKS)

Anyone still running something that can use these? Make me a reasonable offer.
Cleaning out an old desk of mine I came across 8 full boxes of 10 each Floppy Disks. One has been opened but all ten are there. Somebody must still use them because I see Amazon has them for sale.
OFFERS WELCOME!

Brings back nightmares of installing Windows98 via 3.5" floppy.....there was something like 40 installation disks.

Bump for a 90s flash back.

3 1/2" I've got some 10 inchers! Way back, 1978. DECsystem days. The 'Floppy"

Or Microsoft Office 95, something like 27 disks. And just as you insert approximately disk #24--two hours into the installation--you get a "Disk I/O Read Error: Retry/Abort".
And that's when the whole computer goes right out the 2nd story window.

These are SPF. Thanks

I think I still have DOS 6.22(?) on 3.5” disks, though no computer that takes them, only an HP pocket-sized computer that’s hooked up to an AC outlet and still lives, though if it crashes, that’s it.

Zork anyone?

I think I have 2 or 300 used ones in a box in the garage I been meaning to go through. I closed out a few offices in my time and collected up a bunch. Sold 100 on ebay years ago to a lady that does sewing patterns she saved on disk to sell at the sewing shop.

Now if I can find something to read the tape reel I have. lol

Probably should load instructions for posting pictures on those disks and send them to the more challenged members.
