This is my favorite kind of floppy disk: hand written labels showing all the cool software they downloaded/copied on it.

@foone I played the shit out of FROCKS which was a "Boulder Dash"-like game called "Herman and the Falling Rocks". Eventually even got the registered version of it which had the a level editor. Probably still have it around here somewhere on a floppy very much like the one in the photo.

I wonder if you could clone a FlashPath floppy disk emulator but as a PCB.
Youd need a hole in the middle for the spindle, but if you could keep the height down and do some magnetic coils at the right place, it could work?

@foone Then maybe you could make a 5.25" version

The original 1987 ShareData release of Jeopardy for the Apple II had this clue, in the category Fictional Captains: "He sat at the helm of the Starship Enterprise", with the correct answer being "Captain Kirk"

When the game was re-released under the GameTek brand in 1990, it had been been updated to accept either Kirk or Picard.
