Nukey Shay Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I just say "disk drive". If I'm being more specific, I'm most likely not actually talking...so I'd type 1050. Which is a good thing, because a 10-50 means "accident". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Fair enough. Having "Enhanced Density" instead of proper Double Density could be defined as an accident. Along with DOS 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Atari Canada always called it a "ten-fifty" on the numerous occasions I brought my first drive into its repair shop when the drive belt kept repeatedly breaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross PK Posted April 28, 2007 Author Share Posted April 28, 2007 Don't feel bad, Ross PK. I seem to be the only one that calls the VIC-20 the "vee eye see twenty." Lol, I hope you're not taking the ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
