salvaging data for a noob
Don't laugh at me when I say this, but I actually have one of these. It's been sitting under my desk for the past 13 years. At first the floppy drive went kaput, but no big deal. I could still play games on it. Then the mouse started going funny. But that's ok, I could use keyboard shortcuts to get around. But now it's basically 30lbs of junk that I can't do much with, and it's time to throw it away.
However, before I do that, I'd like to salvage some of the documents and games on it. Even though I'm an electrical engineer, I have very limited experience taking apart computers, especially one this old. Can someone tell me if there's any way I can salvage the data and what I would need to do so?
Thanks!
