For me, it must have been 20 years ago in 2005. I got Kingston's 512MB flash drive for a Christmas present and oh my how great it felt to hold so much of memory in my pocket. After that it was clear to me that there is no use for floppies to me anymore.

2003

I would have used a USB drive; I owned one back then. But I needed something that would work with the school's computers. This was back when most mice and keyboards were still PS/2 and most printers were parallel, so USB wasn't on every computer yet. At least, not at the school I went to.
