I use floppies to save because I'm still using quickbooks 2001 and the only quick save option it gives you is to use a floppy.  I could save to the hard drive but then I would have to save to a cd after that  and its just easier to pop a floppy in.

I used a Floppy about a month ago while helping a patron at the library where I work. Must of the patrons that come either use floppies or they just don't save. I, personally use flash drives or e-mail it to myself if I don't have a flash drive with me. For music I use CDs.
