Thanks Paul.
I must have thrown away about half a dozen of those big floppy drives over the years, but still have some very old DOS programs here I would like to play with again.
Its unlikely you will find one of those floppy drives at the tip, the stuff at my tip all seems to be much more recent. If all else fails its nice to know e-bay is an alternative.
You are much more likely to find yourself a low profile power supply, they are now becoming a lot more common.
I have also scored from the tip some very nice smaller computer cases that had a hinged lid. I then completely gutted the whole case and rebuilt them as various home brew projects.
These can turn out looking quite respectable if the whole front part is removed, and replaced with a flat aluminium panel.
Cheers, Tony. |
