   I haven't had a floppy drive in a computer for yonks, the last 3 new   
   ones didn't even have CD/DVD drives. Even the few PCs I have built in   
   recent times - like the past 20 years - had 250 Meg Zip Drives and they   
   were rarely used. A: and B: names should be freed up to reflect current   
   computer usage.
