Thanks for the reminder to get my old printer fired up.

Good question......

Sometime ago I read a post, maybe here,  that the poster was having a hard time finding a 5.25" disk drive to get data from a 5.25"  diskette.  Then he went on to say that last night he printed a 60 year old negative.......

Being retired from a large computer company after 40 years I have seen many variations of digital storage come and go.   Moving images to new media for storage can be a major undertaking.   Then we have the questions about degradation of the media itself.
