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.

A few months ago. Was repairing a FANUC robotic arm, and found an incredibly dusty box. At the bottom of it was a few disks marks as "robot"

Had to find a reader, and only one of them was still readable.
