  minifloppy
       
           5.25-inch {vanilla} floppy disks, as opposed to
          3.5-inch or {microfloppies} and the now-obsolescent 8-inch
          variety.
       


          At one time, this term was a trademark of {Shugart Associates}
          for their SA-400 minifloppy drive.  Nobody paid any attention.
       
          See {stiffy}.
