Thats how long its been since I even used one let alone saw one.
When I finished my last complete system build I included a floppy as I thought it would be useful for any old documents I had etc. Floppys in my experience are so unreliable that any of my old documents where currupted anyway so where useless.
In the whole 3 or so years I have had this build I have used the floppy 3 times (Technically 4 though that time it had been transplanted into another machine). First time was to retreive old documents wich unfortunatley as above went wrong as the data was currupt. Second time was when a friend found an old disc that we used to mess around with in school stuck under his carpet when they where decorating (Good old trip down memory lane on that disc, was very nostalgic). Third time was a bios flash.
