HAHAHA Swapping war stories and scars.

My SE was really trick, had the FDHD and a 20 meg internal HD. Learned 
that little drick that if you drilled a second hole your 800k floppy 
could then hold 1440k. Usually did it with a nail file. I was amused 
that the 3.5s were less floppy than the 5.25s, but at least I no longer 
had to put tape on them to write-protect the contents.
