Is it just me, or is there something not-so-subtly
ironic and
gratifying about a 450mHz desktop with a working 5.25 floppy drive
installed?
my 750mhz Athlon has a 3.5/5.25 combo drive in it (both drives in a
single half height 5.25 case). I don't think I have used the 5.25 half...
but I put it in "just in case".

I usually have a 5.25" drive in my PC workstation, but haven't put it back
in since I cleaned it. I've only used it twice in the last 3 years. I
imagine I'll start using it more when I start setting up the classic
machines I've got packed away.

Is is just me or isn't a 450-750 milli-hertz box rather slow? I've heard
of overclocking modern boxen, but underclocking by nine orders of
magnitude? God, and I thought my 8MHz Mac SE was slow... ;-)
