I still support 3.5", 5.25", and ZIP disks at my office. We don't use floppies ourselves at this point, but we still have clients who do. Our office VoIP PBX is from ~2002 or so, running on CentOS 6, with 24 year old parts inside the box. Actually ordering its replacement this week.
That may all be true, yet it doesn't invalidate my previous post.
