The 386 Experience works to divert vintage electronics from being thrown away. The 386 Experience exists to promote the continued use of vintage computers and electronics. As these systems and software age, there are fewer and fewer of them available. Much of the software is discarded as "useless" and the hardware is thrown away for being "obsolete." We want to rescue the software and electronics before they vanish from existence. Computer users with knowledge of how to use and repair these systems are still around and it is our responsibility to pass this knowledge on to future generations. There was a time when you used a typewriter to type a letter, a 8-Track tape to listen to an album, and a dial up modem to connect to the internet. If we cannot repair a device, we work to repurpose the item so that it can continue to be enjoyed - this Floppy Disk Desk Accessory Set is one way we've found to repurpose otherwise unusable floppy disks. Check the photos in this listing for more details on the condition and features of this item. ------------------------------------------------------------- I aim for 100% customer satisfaction on all of my transactions.
