Does the computer you are currently on have a floppy drive?

This laptop doesn't, and the only one that does in this house is an old Windows 95 one downstairs.

When was the last time you had a computer that had one?

Mine does. It's an XP from '01. All the computers at my school do too, and they're newer. I think most laptops don't, though, but they still put them on desktops.

I still do. ^_^

Mine does. This computer's only 2 years old...

My current motherboard supports them, but that's extra cables in my case, so when I switched cases, I never bothered moving the drives.

My Closet Computer has the floppy drivs, but I haven't plugged in those either.

Mine has a USB attachable drive, but not built in.

Mac, you see. =P

Good for you, I just found all my old Apogee floppies and I don't want to lug the computer out of storage. D:

Meh, at least I have the CD-ROM version of all of the games in one AND Doom 2. =3

I HAVE NO FLOPPY DRIVE

I should look into getting one of those eventually, once they get cheaper and have better Vista compatibility.

I don't, I'm on a laptop. The family desktop does, though.

Lotos · December 11, 2008, 07:22:46 PM

Yup, only one in the house with one.

Am I the only one whose laptop has one of these built in? My laptop isn't even that old, only two years.

Who made it?

Zovistograt · December 11, 2008, 07:35:47 PM

Nah, my laptop doesn't really have room for one :P

Better question: who has one of the TRUE floppy drives, one that can accept one of these beauties:

Kingmush · December 11, 2008, 07:40:18 PM

Mine does, I think we custom ordered it to have one since my mom used to have literally a box of used and unused disks...

It was a Toshiba I found at my local Computer shop. I wouldn't doubt it if you told me it was modded. This store gets a lot of them. But they're still the best computer store ever.
