Default Re: Do you still use floppies?

Someone else who's heard of a VAX and doesn't think they are orange and clean carpets

The tape backups have got so much better as well, we used to have TK50's on the microVAX's, they are now DLT drives and can hold 80Gb, I thought the original 50Mb was huge

Bring back RA60's, you knew you had a "proper" drive with these. You also knew about it by the time you'd done a backup on them and carted them to the fire safe on the other side of site.
