Re: Could you send a copy of your data

Fax of a floppy disk is a good one.

I had an accountant tell me he made regular copies of his floppies for backup. He had a full drawer full of photocopiesof his 5 1/4 disks.

Another one was very organized. He put all his floppies in a three-ring binder.

Of course, for convenience sake he also used the puncher so that he could put his floppies in the rings.

My favorite one was a dear old Direction Secretary. Se just got a brand new PS/2 with the 3 1/2 floppies and complained it wasn't working and she couldn't read her old floppies.

As the 5 1/4 floppies didn't fit she folded it in 4 so it would fit in the 3 1/2 drive...
