Holy obsolete technology Batman!

I still have one of those notchers around here somewhere, but mine is a godawful orange color.

[Darrin]

LOL.  Even when we could buy them new for a couple of quid we all still used a pair of scissors instead, didn't we?  Didn't we?  OK, I did.

Used a soldering iron

[persia]

USD 59?!?!?!?!?  Are these things collectable now too?

[mitchd61]

I actually had one of those back in the day. Seeing how I never throw anything away, its probably in a box somewhere!

[klx300r]

bah! Only wimps used those notchers back in the day in my neighbourhood:lol:
we used plain writing paper notchers :razz:

[Darrin]

Nail clippers worked too.

So does a hole punch

[desiv]

Yeah, hole punch here.
But I had a friend who had a disk notcher.
I have to admit that during those floppy ..er..um..  "archiving sessions" we had, the disk notcher was pretty nice to have.

Hole punch was great for a disk here or there, but 30+ in a night, the notcher came in handy..  
But it was like $10 or something, and I'd rather have spent that on blank floppies...

..
for archiving..

Still use a plain $2 hole punch here.  I saw that yesterday.

[mikeymike]

Ah, so that's what a disk notcher does!  I only have about 10 minutes' experience with 5.25" floppy disks.

Would an ice pick have worked?
