Ok maybe not this art, a series of prints have been made which bring the old computer world directly into the digital age, these prints are the result and pretty impressive they are too. Firefox would need thirty six disks, while there is Adobe Photoshop CS4, you would need to put 358 of the disks into your computer if there was a slot for it go. The overall winner is The Sims by EA, if this was available on floppy disk there would be 1,760 of them.

Of course, these are not really floppy disc coasters; they just look like those old 5.25 inch floppy discs, that is if anyone can remember what they are!

These are sold in sets of four different coloured floppy discs, they also come in neat cases just like the original ones would have done, you can even choose your colours if necessarily.

Priced at $28

I am sure most of you heard of recycled record cases, floppy disk bags, and recyled floppy disk pencil holders but here’s a recycled floppy disk bracelet you can buy that’s made out of recycled floppy disk inserts.

The bracelet has been made by a designer in Belgium but is on sale on the Pure Design Company for $110, which may seem expensive, but this is in effect designer jewellery using recycled diskettes that have be sewn together to create a flower like design.

Here’s a floppy disk that plays some really horrible Star Wars music.  Why!!!

I assume it’s a hardware hack that manually controls the floppy drive’s stepper motor, but it’d make my day if this was done in software using standard I/O requests. Either way, the 3.5 inch FDD finally serves an important function again.
