The original drives were single/dual 5 1/4 floppies... then there was a 5MB
drive... then 10MB.....
Had and used them all....
Also had an Apple 2 that was blazing fast... and had 16KB of memory... with
dual FDD... $2K.! I upgraded to 64KB when I worked for a IC company that
made the correct chips....
