Still don't understand why those totally awesome 360k floppies didn't catch on.

I remember playing Mouser on my dad's IBM PC Jr. in the early 80's. That thing, along with it's massive memory modules and dot-matrix printer are still in his basement. Probbbly worth a fortune... or about $20.

Last I checked there were 2 on ebay asking $50 and not a single taker.
