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.

I also got a 512 mb as my first flash drive. Still have it somewhere. Massive.

Used a floppy couple weeks ago for testing on my 1999 gateway solo laptop I use for retrocomputing. I just enjoy the mechanic nature of floppies. Really only good for text and tiny games for me.

Actually using ? For word docs in school 25 years ago.
