2011: The End of an Era

Did you know that Sony still make Floppy Disks?

Well they do, but not for much longer!

Who knew that the old format had so much life in it? Who knew that anybody still had the facility to USE them?

At the Institute for Historical Research, there used to be a 5.5" disk, proudly displayed at the front of the software cabinet and entitled "Ye Olde Floppe Diske" written expertly in gothic copperplate.

Ah the old technology; these kids these days don't know they're born!
