Once upon a time, Chris Jones <chrisjones(a)comcen.com.au> said:
I see it all the time. "Some older hardware still requires
floppies..." It
just seems like a generic defense statement for the fans of floppies and for
those who insist on using them for god knows what reason.
Again, please stop trying to tell me what hardware to use. I have run
into several situations where I _must_ use a floppy. I don't want to,
and I've tried lots of other things first, but the floppy worked.
Any hardware that is true to that statement must be at least 15 years
old
surely!
Hardly. I have a 6 year old notebook that will not book from USB.
And for the cheap price of PCs these days, whether it is building
your own
or grabbing an oem system, just upgrade to something that does have full usb
support.
Feel free to PayPal me money for a new notebook.
