->  Was it DELL who announced last year that it would no longer
->  have floppy drives in its new computers?  I would expect
->  other manufacturers to follow that lead in the not-to-distance

->  lead to a decline in the availability of cheap-free disks. 

 There are several that have done so. In fact enough that the USB floppy
drives are popping up in the Stores. I was at Fry's SAturday and they
had several different brands on the shelf..
While I guess most Computer users may not have a need but for small
files it sure is convient to do a "Right Mouse Click/Send to "A".
I know at least person that now has to Burn a "Floppy sized File" to a
CD-R to turn in a report.
