Why do computers still have floppy drives?
#18
CD-R's are dirt cheap. If you shop the ads in the newspaper you can find rebate specials that occasionaly make them FREE. (After a short wait for the rebate to arrive. ;) )

I keep a floppy drive in my computer just to confound my girlfriends college friends. They will come over and say "What the #$%^ is wrong with your zip drive? My disc won't fit."
All the labs at the college have zip drives installed on the machines. Luckily my girfriend knows how to access her storage space (and her friend's) on the school's network from home.
