Not exactly CPUs, but I figure since retro systems are in, you'll need something to store your CPU pics on and here are just the thing, original IBM 2D 8" floppy disks.

I believe these are 1024 bytes/sector which means they are 1.2MB of capacity, that's like 2-3 whole pics!

Each comes with an original IBM sleeve as well

$4 each
2 for $6
4 for $10

II have 38 of them)
