- This certainly isn't anywhere near that old, but I have a poster from 10 or
- so years
- ago for disks... damn, I don't even remember which disks.. Verbatim I think,
- since I
- know it was a brand that had the "quality" disks back then but basically
- isn't in the floppy business as far as I can tell anymore...
-
- The poster is/was "101 things to worry about now that you don't have to worry
- about X's diskettes..."
-
- And, of course, the 101th thing was (paraphrased) "Someone breaking into your
- house while you're reading a dumb poster."
