Hello all,

 

I picked up a DVI, portable floppy drive (3.5"?), and a couple of Model 100s
from a guy on Facebook. One of the 100's is supposed to work and came in a
hard-shell case (complete with crumbling foam lining) and the other is in a
leatherette sleeve. There was also a small stack of software and manuals. I
suspect there was more in the box but alas one corner had some open due to a
poor job in packaging.

 

<rant>What the h-e-double-hockey-sticks goes through people's minds when
they are packaging stuff up? You take some big, heavy stuff and throw it in
a carboard box with some peanuts and think it will magically be OK? Have
these folks never unboxed something and observed what makes for good
packaging and what does not? Have they ever heard or seen double boxing? How
about at least putting small items in plastic bags so they do travel around
the inside of the box and get broken? Sigh, worst of all neat old computer
stuff gets broken.</rant>

 

Jeff
