Gee, I feel so cutting edge...

A guy just popped his in my office to ask if I had a floppy disc he could borrow.

I had to tell him no.

I almost asked "5.25" or 8"?" just to screw with him.

I threw away the last of my 5.25" a while back. I don't think I ever had an 8", though I may have had one on the wall when I worked at DG. I know I had an old-school hard drive platter that was at least 16" across. It made a pretty clanging noise.

I still have a few 3.5" from the Amiga days. I should transfer them wholesale to a CD-rom or something.

I've still got a box or two of 5.25". Even bought a \\gs with 3.5" and 5.25" drives ($20 a the flea market! Woot!) to migrate them up to newer media so I can save the data. Should do that one of these days...

Excellent.

Pfft. You should transcribe it all to Hollerith cards; that way it's human-readable. Sort of.
