I can see it now. I turn on my Cray-4000 Mega Cluster Neuron Computer, press Control and Enter and it says "Press play then any key" on the screen.

Something for the FW 3.1 project to consider, if it wants to move forward. 

[TotO]

Something as big as 100TB to store?

[MacDeath]

just you wait we get floppy disks again...   I hope 3" will stick on this time.

Are you planning on doing a batch of those super duper Cray-4000 Mega Cluster Neuron Computers? Oh! And do they have edge or centronics connectors? 

[Bryce]

Yeah, I just need to work out how to connect 4 Million Z80s in parallel first.

Do they still stretch if I leave them in a sunny window? Although I am probably safe in Ireland...

Sadly it might be the 8" which sticks. 

[Bryce]

I found they all stick. Especially if you left them in direct sunlight

[Gryzor]

Bah, just souped-up microdrives. I bet Sinclair is behind this. Just wait for the tape to be caught in the edges.

[MacDeath]

I bet Sinclair is behind this

Epic fail ensues*


The microdrive is back...


*hilarity ensues too...
