Filing Cabinets: Going Way of the DoDo Bird?

It's getting to be spring, tax season, and audit season.  Lots of renewals, compilations, etc., are being retrieved out of the archives.  Believe it or not, my place of employment has been around since 1904. 

That means I have actual filing cabinets with some really old documents.

My daughter came into my office and made the comment, "Wow.  Filing cabinets.  Who uses filing cabinets anymore?"

I know everything nowadays is electronic.  Technology is both a blessing and a curse.  The other thing about technology is that it will fail at some point -- it's just a question of when.  My filing cabinets have stood the test of time for well over 100 years.
