I suppose. I am in the process of cleaning out my parents house and
threw away probably 100 pounds or so of boxes of unused floppy disks,
including a bunch of 5 1/4 inch floppies. I don't think he had any 8
inchers around, but he did have a Windows 95 CD.
The dump also got an unused 17 inch CRT and an unused HP inkjet printer.
Sigh.
