According to the Beeb, Sony will stop selling floppy disks in 2011.
Yawn.
I found it amusing that the photo captioned "The first floppy disk was introduced in 1971 by IBM" showed a 3.5" floppy, not the 8" floppy IBM introduced way back then. Maybe the Beeb didn't have any stock photos handy? Maybe the editor didn't know the difference?
Speaking of which, I think I still have some 8 inchers out in my garage somewhere. I might be able to find them if someone is really desperate.
