Possibly, but I ran the same test on about 4 floppies and failed in the same way. I bought a box of 13 floppy disks a while ago off eBay, so unless the box was kept on top of a magnet or something, I'd expect at least one of them to work. Some of them have quite interesting names: Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Software and Code from Neutron Divider So I am quite interested to see what's on them. Thanks, Aaron.
