No. I do not have a "motivation for change" ... I just wanted to know what
your ideas and thoughts are about this topic.

Usually I do not bother with such questions - but right now I stumbled on
the necessarity to find a icon for "saving" - and knew that a floppy disc
is really common (if not say: standard) for this ...

but I was just curious what your opinions are about this. And I wonder if
in, lets say year 2084 or whatever, still "floppy discs" are a symbol for
"store data" ...

would be funny to have a flat-panel screen like in the machine room of
Star Trek, and seeing LaForge pressing some floppy icons ... just joking.
*rofl*
