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.
But not punch[ed] cards?
punch[ed} tape?
floppies?
reel to reel tape?
[USB] flash drives?
memory cards
CD? (include some of the ridiculous promotional odd shaped mini-CDs!)
