<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>People
come to me all the time with floppy disks that they need data pulled from.
Usually with files that need to be converted from insanely old formats, too.
Microsoft Works (3.0 and prior) seem to be popular, I find myself every now and
again (and at present!) pulling data from old floppy disks (often with bad
sectors) and also trying to convert it.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>I usually
then give the floppies back and put the stuff on a Flash drive so that they are
able to have it in something that today's computers are able to read. Ah,
ancient data.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
