what a naff invention...why couldn't they just put a square hole

Then again it was a yank idea

I bought Pozidrives when they first came out -- you could even buy a
special Pozidrive screwdriver, which I also invested in.

Are all screws Pozidrives now? I don't see the brandname in the
sheds when I go.

I think Pro-drive is more common these days - AFAIK the same thing?

There are certainly other different formats around; eg drywall screws
always seem to be Philips, which means continually swapping between
identically sized Philips/Prodrive bits or screwdrivers.

Piggin annoying that innit? Most flat pack is also a mixture of pozi &
phillips fixings.
