I think the poll speaks for itself... I'm proud to say that I do have a floppy drive! A black one to match my case, I even bought it and shoved it in there because I love those usually grey, black or blue little 1.44mb disks. :spot:

Well, sort of. It's USB, but it's still there.
My desktop does, but not my laptop :/

Got one too, a white one in my black case... At least it has a cover over it lol
Not mine, but an old one that still works, so yes.:D
I most definitely have one... I even have a chain of floppy drives.. it is pretty epic... But if one was to ask.. this is the pinnacle of modern floppy drives... this is where it is at...
To anyone who is in to "puns" or "in you endos"... here are a few...
Exabytes... they can turn your floppy-drive into a hard-drive....
Upgrades... they can turn your software into hardware...
Bah, the SuperDisk was better than the Zip disk. Sure, the disks never got quite as big (120mb, and 240mb versus the 100mb, 250mb, and 750mb of the Zip), but the drives themselves worked with both SuperDisks and regular floppies.Quote:

Anyway, I don't have a floppy drive on any of my computers anymore. Haven't seen a floppy in years either.

Yep, in every computer, except for laptops.
Ooh, you can put those in my zip drive :D Wait... that came out wrong :p I have a zip drive lying around here somewhere, but since I don't have zip disks I don't have much use for itQuote:

Also, I have a really oldskool Sony digital camera that stores its photos on a floppy that you insert into the side. It took nice pictures for being (1265 times 5 carry the 2.......), ancient!
My desktops do, my laptops dont
