What? I thought it meant you could only save to floppy. I've got all my work saved on 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,0000,0000,000 of the fuckers.

I never thought about it, but the floppy is a pretty strong icon in my mind. That hard drive makes me think "acces drive c:"
I like the floppy icon.
It's pretty interesting. There are lots of icons in modern day that makes no sense.

It's an easily recognizable symbol and we're used to it
