So, where do you guys like to stuff your floppys?  I have a few C64 games with the actual floppys and I'm not sure what to put them in that would have a good case.  Thought I'd try http://www.unikeep.com/binders-and-accessories/mini-binders/3-ring-case-view-mini-binder.html but wasn't sure if anyone covered this before.  That, and I REALLY wanted to say "stuff your floppys".

Nope. I think the good ol' 5.25inch floppys were the biggest ones.
2 + 3 = 23

You're just not a real man unless you have an 8" floppy
