Hi,
I can say that I have successfully used a USB floppy to transfer the auth key
at work running 5.1 to the hard drive - the Dell system I use doesn't have a
floppy.
Having said this, from 6.0 the JFW key is using the Internet not a floppy.
Andrew.

Hi George
I would certainly initially need access to a floppy disk drive to install my
JAWS authorisation, which is still on floppy disk. Are there any plans to
put the JAWS authorisation on to a CD in the future?

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.
