Atari 800xl and Floppy Drive Appreciation Thread

Maybe this isn't your cup of tea, but for me, this music was not only amazing in its delivery, but thrilling in its execution. You may have seen these around as a lark, but in general I really really love the way this sounds.

In a modern technoverse that seems to be dehumanizing more and more frequently, I think this gives machines as sense of having a soul. Anyone really enjoy the way these sound?

My old computer has a floppy drive. It's awesome - I play so many old games that are just on floppy disks.

i think part of that appeals to me as well. Even if its cake, i don't know that I would have the time or patience. Its certainly not for everyone, but it creates one hell of an effect.
