I might add to this Theresa, that I have A sony USB floppy drive which also has 
an in-built Sony card reader.  Bought it from PC World/Dixons about a year ago. 
 Works fine on the rare ocassions I need it - I too have a floppyless PC.

Hi Theresa,

These are few and far between these days.  The floppy drive
is all but dead.

A 128 MD USB memory key is about the price opf an external
floppy (£20) and holds the equivalent of over 80 floppy
disks.

Subject: [access-uk] Laptops with Floppy Disk Drives

Hi All

I'm looking at buying a new laptop and from my brief
searching around the internet this evening, realise that a
lot of them no longer have the option of an internal floppy
disk drive.  I know I can buy a portable USB floppy disk
drive, but want to avoid that if at all possible.

Can anyone recommend any particular laptops that still have
an internal floppy disk drive?

Thanks.
