Wonder if there's a perl gag in there.

@poorusher I mean, I don't like Perl, but I wouldn't say it makes me gag. (/rimshot)

@cristin ah, they're nowhere close

Props for having a proper (Amsoft 3") disc in there

Don't copy that floppy!

As an added note, GOG just added Starlight 1 & 2, which wasted so many hours of my mid-20s.

@cristin Preserving media is Talboom's job, so I'm guessing these are basically props.

Lol, I saw this photo earlier, but totally missed the sweater b/c I was looking at the computers.
