Hey, I found a "secret", semi-abandoned IT storage at my new job. As you can guess, it was exciting and amazing 😀
Not so many spectacular things in there but still grabbed a few interesting/userful things, more floppies than I'll ever need in a lifetime, floppy drives, CD drives, various cables (audio, IDE, vga, some of them brand new in box...)
Funnily, also found original 5.25" floppies for Electronic Arts' Low Blow - not a great game by any stretch, but a funny find in a industrial factory IT storage.
Another find was a shitload of 64 pin SIMMs I haven't been able to identify...I highly doubt those were meant to be used in Amiga or Apple computers 😁 I thought about HP printers? Or maybe specific industrial machines?
My googling of various stickers and ID's found on the chips has come out empty. Would anyone be able to ID those?
And finally the real "score" of the haul...a Logitech C7 serial mouse in near-mint condition, dirty cable excepted! The very first Logitech branded retail mouse from 1985, that's so cool! The buttons are extremely satisfying to click even today.
Here it is, next to one of its youngest siblings:
