[Hidden-tech] More packrat stuff... files off an ms-dos system?

[Ron Miller]

I have a huge box full of 3.5 floppies too. I just checked on ebay  
and you get a 1000 brand new 1.44 MB 3.5 inch floppies in 10-packs  
for $50 for the whole lot. The 720K are rarer, but you can still get  
a 10 pack for $10.
