HAH!

 If we had a way to make the record, a turntable could be used to get the 
data from a record through the cassette port.

 Does anyone have a record cutter? Even a 78 rpm recording would work.

 Years ago, I actually had my hands on a 45RPM record cutter. It had two 
platters. I think it was actually used as a dictating machine. I bet that 
would make a unique setup on a coco for saving and retrieving data. I wonder 
where a person would find a blank 45 record, if it's even possible.
