In this episode of Ferengi Friday we sort through the generous donation of a deluge of 5-1/4” disk drives, from early 360K half height up to the latter of the 5-1/4” models. One of them is even NIB.
Then we look at a special package from Japan. While it is large and weighs 11kg it contains Sharp Pocket Computer goodness. What could be pocket computer related and be this big and heavy? We’ll wind up doing some emergency surgery to stabilize the patient until the full surgical restoration can be scheduled. Join us and find out.
