Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Re: PSB series II disks on eBay

2012-12-05 by Joe Sleator

I think the dubious honour of the most expensive ones goes to myself. Half asleep, accidentally bidding against another enthusiastic member...and winning. Put your hand up, other member!

Got a few others as well. And yes, at least one other member got a few!

Yay! \o/

We'll keep y'all posted as to what was on 'em, if anything useful. I think the PPG ones might be 8" waveterm B, and the CMI ones II or IIx. We'll know more when they arrive, of course.

Hopefully all who won floppies are in a position to imagedisk 'em, and they all have rare and wonderful content for our continued content-ment.

I see these disks sold for nearly US$2500...wow!

Is the buyer a member here? I hope we will find out if the disks are still usable.
