Man stelle sich vor, Deutschland würde das versuchen. Es gräuelt mir bei dem Gedanken :s

Ja, aber das war doch auch so ein Grossprojekt, das die Jap. Verwaltung Fax loswerden wollte.

there's no victory here - in the article it states that at least one still law requirse floppy disks must continue to be used.
