Kind of hard to give right answers to something that time has rendered utterly useless. I guess you could sell it as an antique

Oh, man. This brings me back to my Amiga 500 days. So slow to load, but I loved that thing. Wish I hadn't sold it.

Several years ago, I found a 3.5" floppy in an old desk, so I wrote "(My company's product) Production backup - DO NOT LOSE" on the label, and then left it on the floor in a main hallway of our office.

In my mind, it hopefully made a few people chuckle, but my real dream was that someone picked it up and tried to return it to the development team.
