Thinking of old hardware again.
Ah man, remember the 5.25″ floppy? No, of course you don’t. Damned kids! Back in the day we used these flexible plastic squares to store our data. They made horrible noises and we slow. They also didn’t hold jack for data. 800k I think was the max.
And that’s what’s missing from virtual machines/emulators! The real floppies! Having to turn the latch for the 5.25″ to work was a pain in the ass, but by god it made you a man! I can’t wait till vmware pops up a message like “Floppy not inserted properly, jiggle mouse to continue”.
…….
I’ll go back to being old now.
