You'll have to come visit here.    My machine has no dvd, but does
have a cd player, a Zipdrive, and a slot that has both a stiffy and a
floppy drive in it.  Hubby's has all those plus a dvd, I think... or at
least between his systems he has all of them.  The old 286 still sits
next to my computer desk, under the printer, with its two floppy drives,
one a single side single density one...  ;)  Just in case... (admittedly
not hooked up at the moment, but quite accessible should the need ever
arise... )

Yeah, I know... It's a throwback...
