I wonder how I'm gonna submit my assignment to my lecturer without Floppy disk laugh.gif maybe using CD/DVD instead . Last time my lecturer ask us students to submit our programming assignment ( i'm IT student ) by submitting our thumb drives.

Buy a floppy drive and buy a pack of floppy?
Better buy a 1GB thumb drive and save all the hussle of changing tons of failed floppy.
Nowadays flash disk ( thumb drive )can be booted by most board after bios setting.
