You think it's bad that the save icons have floppy disks?

A while ago, I was wondering why the usual icon for "database" (upright cylinder divided into multiple horizontal slices) looks like the original flowchart symbol for drum memory, further refined to look like a 1960s hard drive, you know, one of those washing machine sized units. But then again, if you have a serious database, chances are it's running on some several layers deep virtualised replica of a 1960s system
