The end of the Floppy Disk is here!
Posted by adminApr 27
Sony have announced that they will finally stop selling the storage format in Japan from March 2011.
3.5 inch floppy disk..
Earlier in the year Sony had stopped selling the Floppy Disk in most international markets because of reduced sales and the competition from other storage formats.
I’ll be honest, I thought the floppy had died out years ago, because lets face it there isn’t much you can keep on 1.4mb, not even one photo or one song. There was something nice, however, about putting a floppy into the slot, it was nice and clunky, like putting a cartridge into a snes or N64.
