What level of school? Something that might be fun would be to put a comparative picture of
how many x storage device would need to match y (current available tech). But that may be
too elementary depending on the audience.

Subject: I'm working on a Storage Display and need parts.
I'm working on creating a static display of storage types/media for use in schools and
such.
Anybody spare some dead pieces?
I'm not sure I want to make it a detailed survey, probably more of an overview.
Although I could have the first panel being general and add-on panels with more detail.
I'm interested in
Core memory
1/4 tape cart
21" fixed disk platter & head (NCR 656/CDC Hawk if I can ask (kick myself for
trashing my stack of them))
Various memory chips
Bernoulli carts
Syquest carts
WORM disc cart
What ever you think is interesting.
Thanks,
