I have a box of 5 1/4" floppies and a ribbon for an Epson 9-pin dot-matrix printer in my office, both sealed. One day I'm going to put on an exhibit of obsolete computer stuff.

Not only do I have a bunch of lightly used 3.25 inchers, I have empty disk storage boxes that lock. I can't even find a picture of them on line.

I have one of those, somewhere. (The larger ones.) I forget where I picked it up. Floppy Disks (3.5" variety) are awesome. They'll never be out-dated, never be obsolete!
