Really?  Come on, own up!!!  Who’s still buying these in 2010?  I can’t remember the last time I saw a computer with a floppy drive.  Although I have to admit a family member recently tried to give me a file to work on that they had put on a floppy, much to my chagrin and amusement.

Come to think of it, if I go digging around in the basement I probably have a few hundred of these things collecting dust.  Hmm…  maybe I should keep them and sell at a premium next year for those people still needing them.  ;-)
