No more floppy drive problems for me

Post by darthdavid »

I've been having bad luck with floppies and cdrws aren't wide spread enough for me to use them as an alternative so i've finally bitten the bullet and gotten a usb flash drive. http://sandisk.com/retail_cruzermini.html here it is. 128 meg model. Really nice. Got it for 40 bux at staples. Maybe not the best deal i could've possibly found but still reasonable.

No really this is a major improvement. Trust me. My system was giving me an assload of trouble with floppy drives. The last one was defective. And i was tired of wanting to move a file via floppy and being unable to due to the size limit. So this makes my life hella easier. Plus it's cool as hell.

USB keychain drives are indeed useful, I have a 64MB one.

Yeah, they're really handy when the anal retentive network admins lock shit down tighter than a straight guy's asshole in the middle of a gay bar, and you have to save something to removable media.
