Off the top of my head, here's a whimsical little oddball - the
Passez-Sonna Floppy Clock:
Mine has a red, white & blue 'stars & stripes' (US flag) motif printed on
it, but is otherwise identical. It's the only one of its type I have ever
seen..

Hi Everyone!
I thought this would be an interesting question to ask around -
What's the rarest or most unusual computer-related item do you own?
For me, personally, I have a Altair 8800!
Looking forward to hearing your answers
That's a tough one. A 1401 core plane? Some CDC 6000 "cordwood"
modules? Two Durango F85s, complete with 14" Shugart hard drive?
Got a couple of boards that I don't even know the provenance of.
PSU diodes and heatsink from a STAR 1B?
Lotsa junk.

ETA-10 CPU board?
The star off the front of one of those STAR machines
Two mag tapes from Univac I. They are 8" dia, steel and weigh about 8 lbs
each ;-)
IBM 5100?
Two i4040 engineering samples (that work)?
