Laptops.

I'm about to get this beauty along with a usb floppy disk drive, a blue tooth usb adapter, a scrolly mouse, and an extra 12 hour battery.

What do you think?

Looks good - at least for everyday stuff... I'd trade it for my Compaq E500 650mhz... :P

ive never used a floppy for my laptop (which you have seen). i just use my 128 meg thumbdrive and i also have a 16 meg one that my mom's company gave out as a promotion. its cool cuz it has a drug ad on the side kinda like the pens most companies make. its basically worthless tho because 16 megs just isnt enough

I have to say that floppys are useful but, they don't hold as much memory as USB hard drives and CDS but you don't need to use any CD burners to put files on them.
