zealousness 1 .
To unload a {DECtape } (so it goes flap ,
flap , flap ). Old -time {hackers } at {MIT } tell of the days
when the disk was device 0 and {microtapes } were 1 , 2 ,
etc . and attempting to flap device 0 would instead start a
motor banging inside a cabinet near the disk .
The term is used , by extension , for unloading any magnetic
tape . See also {macrotape }. Modern {cartridge tapes } no
longer actually flap , but the usage has remained .
The term could well be re -applied to {DEC }'s {TK50 } cartridge
tape drive , a spectacularly misengineered contraption which
makes a loud flapping sound , almost like an old reel -type
lawnmower , in one of its many tape -eating failure modes .
2 . See {flapping router }.
