Of course, they're not wholly obsolete. And there's still a small market for buggy whips too!

I think zips go up to 750 megabytes while DVDs go up to 4.7 gigs. Around here, even floppies are more popular than zips. (I've got a zip drive somewhere in a drawer, along with the disks. But I can't get it to work anymore.)
