-> Back in the day a dual 5 1/4" floppy set-up was the bee's knees. Now

True. The EX only came with a 5.25 drive. The 3.5 external and 40mb hard
drive I bought a few months later after I learned how to use the thing.
I remember adding a smartwatch board, and additional memory board and
then a 300baud modem for CompuServe. The systems I have here still have
floppy drives in them. Even my custom unit has a 3.5. Probably because I
still have all the 5.25 and 3.5 disks. The good ole days, without
Windows. :)
