Apple File Ware
FileWare floppy disk drives and diskettes were designed by Apple Computer as a higher-performance alternative to the Disk II and Disk III floppy systems used on the Apple II and Apple /// personal computers. The drives were also referred to as Apple 871 drives in service documentation, based on their approximate formatted storage capacity in kilobytes, but were most commonly known by their code name, Twiggy, after a 1960s fashion model (Twiggy) who was famously thin.

Famous quotes containing the words apple and/or file:
“yet another summer loath to go
Although the scythes hang in the apple trees.”
—Louise Bogan (1897–1970)
“A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
