Old floppy diskettes

[Anonymous]

I just ran across some old dbl sided diskettes (old release 9 dwgs) that my
current computer cant read? Is there any sort of utility out there that
could possibly read these?

Hi Mike,

5 1/4 floppy drive?

It's in the closet, sitting on top of those 8" floppies! :O)

Seriously though, I don't know if you can still buy the drives, but my
brother has all my old computers and if you need one let me know. Maybe we
can ship you one "you pay" FedEx or something.

Have fun,

Dave

P.S. I also got a couple Atari's, a Texas Instruments, a Timex Sinclair, PDP
50 and a couple others in the museum. Let me know what you need... :O)

Man are you serious about the Timex Sinclair?, what model is it, the ZX81
Spectrum?

If so, how much do you want for it?

Actually I think the Timex and the PDP50 bit it during the last move. I know
I still have the Compaq luggable though. Any offers?

The Atari 400 with the touchpad keyboard was my first computer. It stays
forever.

Have fun,

Dave

Hector,
You got on the subject of old computers. I have a 1972 IBM displaywriter, 256k with dual 8" floppy drives and a green screen. works good with some original software. Any idea if it's worth anything?
