No, I think it's kind of opposite. If the machine is vending you a drink, that would be better as the "open" icon. You choose which drink (file) you want, and the vending machine gives you the one you asked for.
Jesus that makes me feel old and I never once in my life used a floppy drive.
Oh man I distinctly remember being taught how to insert the floppy disk and then select the A: drive to save to the floppy disk on windows 3.1 in my elementary school computer class. My dad's Prince of Persia game was on like ten floppy disks.
I'm kinda a little jealous of all the people who had computer classes growing up. The schools just expected us to know how to use them and how they work by the time I was getting in
