    Yes, but only because other people who use my system can&#39;t live without them.
    My wife still has a few devices that use them and I still put small programs and &#036;pecial note&#036; on them for friends as well.

    I&#39;ll probably put one in, even though I never use the damn thing...
    unless I have somthing else that needs the real estate in the case.

    this post is guaranteed 100% parrot-free

    Most likely because the school&#39;s comps don&#39;t have cd drives

    or else i&#39;d cd-rw it
    Ohh noo!!! I make dribbles!!!

    yeh i will prob always have a floppy, i use a few programs for diagnosing and low level formatting hard drives that run from floppys, also i use various windows boot discs to boot dodgy drives out of pc&#39;s i workin on that ive put in mine to sort out. you could put a smartcard reader in place of a floppy drive if you got a gaping hole&#33;
