An a parallel conundrum...

Why oh why do we STILL have the symbol of a now very old FLOPPY DISK as
the 'save' symbol?

The present generation have never seen and have no idea what a floppy
disk *is* ... (Looks more like the symbol for a square power button!!)


And the electrons move on...

(Not so sure the Marketing and monopolies though...)


Cheers,
Martin
