    For the "old timers"

    The youngsters (like me) probably won't know what this is. Only reason I know is because I found it, and when I was told what it was, I just knew I had to post a pic here.

    Its only about 1/8th inch thick.

          I got some old reel tapes to go with that beast....
          There is no fear, there is power.
          There is no death, there is immortality.
          There is no weakness, there is the Dark Side.
          I am the Heart of Darkness.
          I know no fear, But rather I instill it in my enemies.
          I am the destroyer of worlds.
          I know the power of the Dark Side.
          I am the fire of hate.
          All the Universe bows before me.
          I pledge myself to the Darkness.
          For I have found true life, In the death of the light.

            there is all kinds of old crap like that laying around. i think the FAA got rid of that system in the late eighties, but stuff like this still lays around.....for whatever reason. Maybe so people like me can find it and have a good laugh.

            However, we still have operational switching units that have 8" floppies.
