@gpowerf Who thinks of backups in the 80s? ;) Everything was expensive back then.

@trinsec me evidently 😄

@trinsec @gpowerf My dad? But then he was among the more tech-savy.

@gpowerf @trinsec If you know of #floppy "players" compatible with modern PC, I'm interested. Especially ones for the 5" 1/4, I have #Apple2 softwares to #backup. (Also interested in adaptators for the original hardware.)

@Bigou @trinsec these USB ones work fine. They are generically branded and readily available.

Ignore the Commodore logo, I stuck that there 😄

@gpowerf @trinsec Thanks, but that only cover the 3.5", not the 5"1/4. (And even then, since most old 3.5" compliant Apple hardware can right on both side of the floppy, there is still compatibility problems on that front.)

Still, thank-you for the info. 😉

@Bigou @trinsec sorry I didn’t read your toot carefully. I think five and a quarter is beyond dead now 😄

@gpowerf @trinsec Not totally, since my dad's Apple//e still work. 😁
