getting harder 2 find zip dics..
did A tour thru my hole town yesterday ...
found a computer store where one of the owners said he could sell some of his own zip discs that where just scraping dust at his home.

Been pondering bout' changing into an newer mpc.. just to keep up with the technology of today.. phuck... really love my trusty mpc2kxl ..

why don't you install a card reader in your 2kxl?

"getting harder and harder 2 find zip dics"

Just go around and ask offices and such if they have some leftover zips. Zip disks are becoming obsolete and a lot of offices just give them away for free.

It's really easy to do....you'll ask yourself why you waited so long after you've done it....

A while back I was trying to give away my internal 250 zip and a few 250 zips, but you didn't need them. I've since given them away. That was back when I changed to card reader.

SO glad that I swtiched over.
