Professor finds old Apple computer in his loft and it still works
Many out there don’t know what a floppy disk is, but this professor was sent back to his childhood when he found his old Apple IIe in the loft, and it still worked fine. Professor John Pfaff of Fordham University had stored the computer in his parents’ attic for several decades. In a tweet, he said he put an old games disk, “Adventureland,” into the floppy drive and it asked if he wanted to restore a saved game. He found one and said it must be 30 years old, but he felt ten years old again.
Oh.

My.
God.
An Apple IIe. Sat in my parents’ attic for years. Decades.
And it works.
Put in an old game disk. Asks if I want to restore a saved game.
And finds one!
It must be 30 years old.
I’m 10 years old again. pic.twitter.com/zL7wWxOo36
