I picked something up today that seems trivial. It was inexpensive, coming to $11. Nonetheless, it's something more important than most people realize.
A box of DS/DD floppies.
You know you've been around this hobby far too long when you know just how nice it is to open up a fresh new box of disks that will actually work in your 800K drives.
Granted, they're NOS, and there may be one or two that don't format quite correctly, but having a few good disks is never a bad thing, especially when you have a floppy-driven 512Ke currently in service...
