I wonder if a stylized hard disk is any better than a stylized 3.5" disk. The former is not only more common as a Save symbol nowadays, I also think that floppy disks are much better known to people than external hard drives. Also, the silhouette of a hard drive (basically a generic box) is less recognizable than that if a floppy disk (square with a missing edge). - Sebastian _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
