Lolz, this is antique stuff we have here!
My home does have a few black floppies lying around the house, but they are for foot stepping only.
Once, I picked one up and dismantled it to show to my nephews its parts - the thin circular film, a similar sized tissue to protect it, the metallic circular plate bonded to the concentric empty circle of the film, the very small lever that provides spring and enables reading by the PC when the floppy is inserted, and the rest of the outer body! I also tell them the history of floppies, the large thinner sizes ones, and these too! They enjoy it so much!
No matter where technology takes us, these little old antiques will remain part of the many souvenirs I give new little ones! Foot stepping function? Nah, not a good option!
Ciao.
