Who remembers worrying if your files stored on a floppy disk were gong to still be there when you needed them? Well I just copied some files from five 3.5" floppies created in 1994 and they were still readable. I used an IBM laptop PC with a 12" LCD screen. You just can't kill those old IBM laptops.
The files were an old (DOS) TurboC compiler that I used to use and some old .com DOS commands that I wrote back then. Funny thing is that I completely forgot how to code C and can't even read my own code. I may just see if I can get it running when the snow flies and I get cabin fever.
