Reminds me of a friend who recently went to this shonky Polytech computer course.
They gave out these really old text books, a page I turned to read:
"the standard 8 inch diskette is the most popular storage medium of today, though it may eventually be replaced by the new 5.25 inch diskette".

It also had a photo of a "futuristic modern paperless office" with this massive mainframe taking up most of the office space and no paper anywhere.

Yeah right, as if that really happened!
