Time Machine: Workstation (September 1993)

Man, just LOOK at all the old stuff there. Mac SE, ImageWriter, old

rabbi-tom art, John Shull's "Wonder Dog", tons of old paperbacks...

It's a miracle I managed to get anything done in that environment.

That's not the small floppy disc drive either is it? Yeah, I was 4 in 93, didn't get out first computer till I was like, 7. Hehe, when we had our games on floppy disc drives and had to use DOS to load em |D

3.5" floppies, yeah. This had the GOOD drive, I could get a whopping 1.4 megs per floppy. Ah, those were the days...

Funny part is, one friend of mine saw the Mac back then and said, "Okay, where do I stick in the quarter?"

I don't doubt it. I'm gonna hafta figure out a way to read those floppies one of these days; lord knows what interesting tidbits are hidden there...

Well, if you still have a mac, the format should be readable on the modern OSs. All that would be needed is the correct sized drive.

Major Matt Mason ~marmelmm

The Man, The Stache, The Legend

Most of 'em, yeah. I'd have to figure something out for the 400k floppies, as I seem to recall support for the old MFS was dropped for OS9 on.

What about a library? They might be using an old enough system

Major Matt Mason ~marmelmm

The Man, The Stache, The Legend

Mebbe. Or find an old G3 tower with a floppy drive and a USB port.

Osprey Hawk ~osprey

Or or, install an old OS using a virtual Mac program
