The thought that people only know the floppy disk from the save icons makes me feel so old...

We are at a point now where there may be people who are familiar with a floppy disc, but have never seen a CD/DVD. Which is friggin' wild.

Nah, I'm just taking the piss. I even played games on the really old, really FLOPPY 5.5" disks. Wheel of fortune... good times, good times.

So you missed out on the era of 8" floppy disks?
