Comment What does 3'' mean, today? (Score 1) 258

My ruler has mm/cm/m. If a single country prefers non-metric system, they should make a private vote.

I don't know what is 5 inch, and I don't care.

I forgot: My size is 1047 qaz (my own unit, QZ, used by me only, very useful for people height). Well, it is logarithmic, but this
could please people still using inch or 1/8 for a share price...

As far as I remember, I started to use CD (and stopped floppies) in '98, when I had to move from France to Japan. I made a full hard disk backup at that time, fearing the computer would not survive the 1 month travel. I never touched a floppy since then. I switched to DVD when I moved for the second time from France to Japan, in 2005 (but could not even make a full backup - just personal data).
Blu-ray is next step, when I am sure to find a Linux-compatible writer.
