>> Wrong. The Internet is the ideal media for small file distribution. <<

I already said that but floppy is still a must as not all PC has internet access, especially in some working environment. Some of our departments explicitly ask not to install internet access for 1) security reason. 2) avoid people browsing for personal reason during working hrs.

>> >>This occur when you see major PC box maker sell PC without floppy.<<
>> iMac <<

I said PC, I meant IBM PC. iMac is consider a niche market (a successful one) but don't you see many analysts' negative opinion about iMac's floppyless decision?
