​Floppy disks


Floppy disks have been out of production for about a decade, but the Japanese government just started to phase them out, the Nikkei reported over the weekend.

Local officials in Tokyo had clung on to the floppy, as it was ultra-reliable. The disks "almost never broke and lost data," Yoichi Ono, who is in charge of managing public funds for Meguro ward, told the Nikkei.

But now, Tokyo city officials have finally decided floppy disks have to go, due to the fees charged at some places.
