Bye, bye, Mr. Floppy Disk Pie

After a long, slow descent into irrelevance, the final days of the floppy seem to be arriving.

The funny thing is, the most recent version of the floppy, the Sony 3.5" disk, isn't the least bit "floppy". It's quite rigid and solid.

Nuh uh! They're every bit as floppy, not to mention flippy and flappy and don't fly worth a damn. You're just used to looking at 'em with their clothes armour on.

Of course, you can fling 'em a lot farther across the room when they're still in that square plastic casing than when they're naked.
