Revive the nostalgia of those sexy clicking and electro-mechanical floppy disks. Storing a whopping 1.44Mb of data (enough for a 30 second 128kbps mp3 or a couple of Jpegs), should be plenty for you to get buy and stash away a secret word document, embarrassing photo, a pic of your favorite adult movie star or your little black book of phone numbers.
Kids: forget USB flash drives and DVDs - these were the shizzle back in the day!
You can save a couple of quid on ebay and there are one or 2 for less on amazon, but this one is fulfilled by amazon - and its worth it for the nostalgia alone!

Not a fan of this new fangled 3.5" tech, it's witchcraft. You know where you are with a 5.25" disk.

I think monkey island 2 was the most number of floppies. 13? vague memories of installing windows 3.1 multiple times and then windows 95 upgrade on cd!

Great, our son's half term project can be to install win3.1 off a dozen floppies. Good times.
