About This Item

Homebase: Moorhead, Minnesota

A floppy disk is a flexible removable magnetic disk, typically encased in hard plastic, used for storing data. 

The floppy disk was once ubiquitous. More than five billion were sold per year worldwide at its peak in the mid-1990s. Now, the little plastic packages are a fast-fading memory.

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 8/4/2015 ScouterTonyF grabbed it   Visit Log

Retrieved from Pa's Clan #1 at CAB Edmonton. Bad news, there was no sign of what the tag was attached to. Just the dog tag portion was there. I'll see what I can attach it to before I drop it into a cache.
