Buy all the stock now, whilst you still can.:mrgreen:
Re: Oh no! The Floppy Disk's time may be numbered soon...
Noooo, and I just destroyed the entire stock of spare floppies.
I guess I'd better hope they don't come in useful now :rolleyes:
Re: Oh no! The Floppy Disk's time may be numbered soon...
It'd be interesting to know how many they've sold in 30 years.
Re: Oh no! The Floppy Disk's time may be numbered soon...
My guess would be a lot. I've just read an article that said they still sell hundreds of thousands a month!

I don't think many muppets have their own computers. But I still use floppies as my computer can't boot from USB. It's far quicker to stick/edit small programs on a floppy and boot from it than spend the faff burning a CD.

Apparently whatever's wrong with my board is bad enough that I can't rescue it from a floppy. Anyone want an MSI K9A2 platinum for spares / repair? ;)
