It's only 720K if you get the DSDD model, but you can drill a hole in the upper left to convert it to the 1.44MB DSHD model.

You guys are confused, I don't think that's 3.5 inches, unless that's one of the borrowers.

The floppy below left is a standard 1.44MB, the one on the right is a 720KB drilled out which allows reformatting as a 1.44MB.

I think rCadeGaming was making a comment about the size of the floppy relative to the arm thats opening the drawer.
Too many jokes flying over everyone's heads. ;D

Those both look, like 3.5" disks though; was just saying the table looks a lot bigger. It probably has a laser disc in it.

D'oh! Googled The Borrowers (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118755/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), and with that, teh dumb melts away into clarity. :lol (proper noun, not generic adjective)
Don't remember ever seeing the movie or even previews.

You mean like this drilled and reformatted DS,DD ==> DS, HD? ;D

I haven't seen it either. It was a book though, and Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli; Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, etc.) just made a new film based on it.

I would make it from AOL floppies. We all had a drawer full of those.
Is this too meta?
Scott

Not too meta but we HAD a drawer full. It would be hard to locate that many of them now.

I want 5 of them so I can pretend to install a giant copy of Doom II.
