why does this happen? how do I "reset" a floppy drive (in windows) so that it tells me what's on the current disk, not what was on the previous disk that's been removed.
These items have all been claimed.

This is all on paper and weighs a fair bit.
Located in San Diego area, so pickup would be best.
I’m willing to ship it for 50% of the shipping cost.

Listing of a pascal_interpreter, written in Pascal (of course)

Originally as I understand it the mouse as a product of Xerox was intended not so much for general use but to aid youngins and disabled people with their usage. And despite the never-mousers, predominantly linux fanatics, it's an indispensable tool for nearly everyone. There was a stint where I favored trackballs. But it's a toss up as to which is more natural and faster. Each may excel in cwrtain applications.
Then there's the touch screen (and touch pad). I find touch pads superior, make that way superior to that horrific track point used on old Thinkpads. But again that'a me. Touch screens, my hatred for them grows almost daily. They have their place. And for portable devices they're largely the only game in town. But I often wish I at least had the option of a mouse or something close.
Is this an example of where older tech beats the new tech? Or do aspects of the newer tech just await refinement?
I have 2 of these that are in need of a new home. These are quite large 4 racks each. Although the 11/60 is only a double rack by itself.
Offers. Located In Kent. WA.

Hi,
Can someone recommend a place where I can buy replacement tension band for
QIC(-150) tapes? I known about the boiling trick, sadly I don't have any
original bands to boil 😁.
Thanks.
Regards,
BogDan.
P.s. I found on Amazon a few alternatives, but they are quite thick (1.5mm)
while the original ones are much thiner.

I’m looking at some 3.5” floppies from about 1995, so probably about the time I got my first Mac.
Am I correct that System 7 used A:\RESOURCE.FRK\DESKTOP as the Resource Fork data? MacOS 12.5 doesn’t appear to use it. :-)
A bunch of the floppies I’m looking at have this, including ones that appear to be PC Backups.

I do have some Data Generals, and HP 1000's next up.
