I voted. Off topic, I think it would be awesome if you could develop a shredder that shreds, than incinerates the paper! Or, a shredder that will shred paper and cheese

Voting selections doesn't match what I do.

I have a cross-cut home office shredder - it can take up to 3 sheets at once. But I use it to shred credit card receipts and credit card bills. I never put more than 2 pages in there at once.

Once a year, I shred a whole year's worth of past credit card bills - that takes almost an hour.

Once a month, I shred credit card receipts that has been paid and I know I won't need the receipt anymore. Even though the receipts only has the last 4 digits, I still shred. This job usually take no more than 5 minutes.

I need to shred floppies, CD's and backup tapes. Any suggestions? This would be 'volume' work -- i.e. hundreds at a time.

The floppies would need to be shredded to 1bout 1/4" or smaller.
