Roddenberry, who died in 1991, apparently left behind a couple of
shoebox-sized containers of those big floppy disks.
The problem? As any techie knows, floppy drives went out off fashion around
the turn of the 21st century. Even if you bought a used 5.25-inch floppy
drive off of Cyrano Jones on space station K7, you wouldn't be able to read
the files on a modern computer, let alone plug in the drive.
Roddenberry's estate knew of two possible computers the author had used to
write those final words. One had been sold off in a charity auction and the
second wouldn't boot when plugged in.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
