Shaggy Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 Floppy's are cheap, so why not have one. If you can scrap one off an older computer, you might as well. That little thing might just save your life someday..or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inu_Yasha Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 Yes, because I write reports and stuff for class, and I have a HIGHLY racist teacher that thinks that I can't write so she needs proof that I wrote my stuff and all.... Plus i need it when installing win2k because of my controller card... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 I just use a CD-RW when transfering small files... And if I have no CD-RWs, I just use and dispose of a CD-R... since I can get 100 CD-Rs for $24, it's not like I'm out a lot of $$... Then there is also the ability to x-fer across the network... or my favorite,,, set up and FTP server on the network, and FTP files across the network. Thinking about getting a USB HD...

d3bruts1d Posted July 31, 2002 Posted July 31, 2002 Recovery floppy? Bah... I make back ups of my files on a regular basis (before I screw with anything)... if something goes wrong, I just fdisk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
