> I've heard that if you disassemble a floppy disk and attach the brown
ferromagnetic disc itself to the back of your digital camera, the pixels
will be sharper in the resulting image because of a quantum clustering
effect between the Fe3O4 molecules in the floppy disc and the Niobium used
in the digital image memory. I tried it and the resulting picture sure
looked much sharper to me.

some sort of synergistic effect with the digital image memory, too, thereby
getting more than 2 megapixels' worth of sharpness out of a digital camera
with a 2Mpx CCD?
