    Spent some time imaging a bunch of floppies from my late father last summer, and I noticed that on every single 3.5" floppy box, the keys were the same. The locks had same bitting.

    …also just noticed that the single 5.25" floppy box (of Commodore 64 floppies) I have at hand that even has a lock is currently unlocked. And the key is at my parents’ place. …have to check if the key is the same as the rest when I visit the next time.

      As a kid I figured out most of those tubular key locks that were used to disable the keyboard/power/HDD all used the same key too.
