Why do computers still have floppy drives?

Quote: mean, how else am I going to reload Castle Wolfenstein or one of the old Gold Box D&D games if I get in a nostalgic mood. Not that I've done either for seven years or so. Probably wouldn't run on the new boxes anyway.

Heh, Wizards of the coast released several collectors editions of the Gold Box games on CD several years ago(I think the collectors sets don't even come with a translation wheel though, shame on them).

It is possible to play them on modern PCs, but you need to use a program that forces your comptuer to use very few of its resources. Their are several commercial ones, and free ones, but it often takes a large amount of tweaking to get any of them to work properly.
