Dumb I know. I found it slightly amusing.

This can't have been an coincidence! 😁
Btw, a few years a go I've encountered a funny seller, too.
He sold a blue 3,5" DD diskette as a physical model of a "Save icon".
I've wrote him a message and congratulated him for how realistic his model was.
He replied with a "I know, right ?!?" and a smiley. Humor, I love it. 😁

I'd like to have a 286 for a $3.86, to put in a motherboard. But the motherboard would probably cost me an ARM, and with inflation, my own leg.

Ha ha, that's funny. On a slightly different note, I wonder what percent of the population know where the save icon originated.

For the price of an ARM, I'd be ok with that. I'll keep my leg.
There are new pull 286 MB on ebay for only about 13X that price + shipping. Not terrible.

THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!
