> Back in the day, when floppies were pricey

Back in those days I used to use 5.25" floppies, which came with a cut out
notch on the right hand side. I used to cut a similar notch on the left so
that I could turn it over and use both sides :-)

Later though the floppies became nothing more than frisbies :-)
