Does anybody remember using 8 inch floppies. My first computer for my office was purchased in 1981, a DEC. The program and data were run from two 8 inch floppies (with data transfered monthly to five other disks). The two drives were about the size of a mini tower ( I had the option to buy a 10 MB Winchester hard drive, for $10,000. I passed, I new that with time they would get cheaper!). The vender gave me a disk with a few games on it...hangman and a star trek game come to mind. This machine revolutionized the business side of my office.
