    I've got a couple, used them all the time. Also converted one into a mini 1541 disk drive by housing it in a 3D printed C64 disk drive case to use with my "thec64" recreated Commodore 64.

    I remember playing that Larry game when I was younger and feeling a little sense of being naughty. Idk.

    I think I had one
    They were pretty useful in that you could download things at the library and be able to take that data back home.

    Never felt the need to, although i did write a bootloader the other day and compiled it, saved it to floppy format.
