Wait, why are people still using floppy's in 2010 in the first place?

Blaspheme.... it's a perfectly viable way to store a digital photo.

Oh yes, I love being able to store 3 photos and being able to use it on maybe 2 total computers in any given areas.  Totally more convenient than any USB flash drive that most any computer made within the last five years can use.

Again, I don't really see why they are still being made in the first place, they died long ago.  I guess some people use them to store 3 photos and others use them to update their BiOS but should we really support the people that don't know any better?

A lot of my photos are more than 1MB

Ok, so you get 1 photo instead of three.  I thought I was being a little generous saying you'd get three. 

It's why I said "a digital photo" instead of some.

Ignoring my sarcasm.... I think my grandparents would probably still be quite amazed if I gave them a floppy disc and said there was a photo on it.
