Naturally born midgets or do you have some ray or potion in your arsenal to shrink non-midgets to midget size?

While we are on a roll with first computers ... Colorado School of Mines had a special deal with IBM for the first issued IBM dual floppy in 1985. I hung onto this dinosaur adding in hard drives, modems, graphic card and eventually had to retire it to keep up with ever improving software.
Gotta love the zombie green characters ...
