| Posted by: adityamahesh | | I do. No idea what I am going to do with them. No one wants them. 
Maybe that MC can use them.

| Posted by: gaboman | | Yeah, I got a box of floppies. I keep them in case I feel the urge to install DOS 5.0 onto my computer and play wolfensein 3D. | | Reply To this Message

| Posted by: HECK! | | I've seen a few new Gateway's that don't even have a floppy drive. I still use them.
A few people around the office are giving away their ZIP disks, too. Stupid CD-RW drives.

i'm disappointed in you G-man. you should have a dedicated machine with a RAID array for that very purpose.

| Posted by: adityamahesh | | Laptops are starting to become affordable with DVD+-RWs. Give a year or so, and CD-RWs will not be enough anymore.

| Posted by: gaboman | | CD-RW isn't enough for me even now. I've got 200GB of hard disc space total, I download about 5-10 GB every few days. Most things I download would be between 200 and 4000 megs. Definitely need the DVD-R. | | Reply To this Message
