    Nice geekfest

    This kind of thing might have been useful in the days when sound cards were optional extras...

    I've seen the Imperial March one before, but not the Mario one.

    Always great to see/hear things like this though - I think I originally found the first as a related video from one of the Musical Tesla Coil videos.

    Re: Just amazing - Music made by using floppy drives!

    Do I post a picture of the mammoth pile of 3.5" drives I have saved (just in case!) or not?
