Still have it in every machines. You'll never know when you need it. For a few dollars more, it beats looking for one when the time comes.

Oh, by the way, the last time I used floppy was to flash FX5900XT bios from Chaintech to BFG.

Before that, reset my Hard drive which somehow went to 66mhz instead of 100.

If I need to flash a bios, I burn the files on a disk, boot with an old win98se cdrom with cdrom support and run the program off the cd. Still, I have one floppy drive+cable in here somewhere, In case I need it.

I still use a floppy, for memtest and bios flashes! faster and cheaper than a cd(-rw).
