And from where you get supplies ? the last floppy disk manufacturing plant shut down in 2011...
Billions were made. My closets and drawers. Freecycle. Garage sales. Yard sales. Estate sales. Goodwill. Retail store inventories. Craigslist. Many of the same sources from which one can get old puters to refurb.
BIOSes have now builtin flashers or the vendors provide ways to create USB/CD bootable media..
"Now", a keyword. Non-exclusive would be another apt descriptor. It was not always thus.
USB is a nuisance because the media provide no room to write anything useful on.
what ??? @_@
