The floppy disk held sway for many years as the number one choice for transporting files from place to place. However, the advent of the USB flash drive could finally signal the death of the floppy.
With recent versions of Windows, you can simply plug one of these drives into a spare USB port and almost instantly begin to transfer files.
Buffalo's Flash Drive is one of the smallest examples available, but it is also one of the largest around in terms of capacity, with a huge 512Mb of storage. If you plug it into a USB 2 socket, it is extremely fast - once it was full it took us around 90 seconds to transfer its contents to a computer.
It comes in a neat transparent blue plastic casing with a keyring attachment at one end. At the other, a detachable cover keeps the USB plug free of dust. It does feel slightly flimsy, and the cover is so small it's easy to misplace, but it's still useful and attractive.
