I remember seeing that thing in game magazines when I was a kid.  Thought it was pretty cool to be able to get floppies from school and use them as memory cards :)

It's rare like that one Dreamcast prototype but in this case, someone with a ton of floppy disks could probably actually use the thing. It's rare, someone will want it. Have you seen that thing anywhere Solid? I'd think a collector could take it up for like $100 at most? I dunno!

I imagine it works much like a memory card? I wonder what the files look like on a floppy disk when put into a pc.
