My parents still have some old floopys lying around. When my firend gave me his computer ( It was junk, anyways ) He provided me some old floppys even though the computer didnt have a floppy drive. My school along time ago used to have Mac os 9 machines, and im pretty sure those used floppys. ( The old principale threw those away and found some old monitors and Pcs and the junk yard and gave it to us for replacment xD )

The controller for my CNC Mill is an old Xeon 550 and the software runs in DOS. It's all sneaker-net to get data from the PC to the Mill.

I never used a computer when these were out, but I have to ask, was it fun getting a virus?

I use them because my keyboard uses them. I use school computers to actually get the songs I played off the floppy disk

I was digging though my mums old stuff and I found a disk but I have no idea what's on it because my computer doesn't have a drive I'll be willing to ship it to someone who could read it
