Here in Brazil we've been always metric but we use "inches" sometimes.
For example: most TV sets, computer monitors, diskettes (obsolete), water pipes (specially smaller sizes), surf boards and automobile wheels still are measured in inches. The conversion is easy: 1 in = 2.54 cm, 1 feet = 12 inches. My notebook has a 15" monitor; my first Intel PC had 5 1/4" diskette drives.

Diskette sizes are defined in cm, the inches only are approximations for people that are unable to deal with metric sizes.
