Hi Robert, in general I do agree with you (and it's sad) but...

What I meant is that I always try to move my things (which do *all* fit 
on a hard disc, since hard discs become larger and larger) to new 
storage supports. Just to be safe.

Curious is, right now I have some files on a 5 1/4 floppy that I'd like 
to read, because I probably forgot to copy them when I let that 
technology go, back in 1995 or so...
I have a reader, floppies should still work, BIOS recognizes the FDD (a 
P4 machine), but no luck :-(
