Dave,
You save the 3.5 inch floppies I plan to save the floppy drives and
cables.
Archiving - isn't it wonderful. I've got old (paper) photos of my
grandfather that were taken in the 1910. Do you think anyone will be
able to read my CD's in 100 years to look at all my photos?

Jump in and get them early, they won't last at these prices. Free
