ways to feel old: see a youtube video titled "what happened to the A: and B: drives in windows"

@Felthry hah, i use them for spare hard drives. windows future compatibility is weird

@pearshapes hah, wafers A, B, and C (along with D through P) are the names of something we've been working with at work

in our case they're categories of devices organized by which silicon wafer (all processed slightly differently) they came from, to evaluate which type of process works best for this thing
