What is this "floppy disk" you speak about?
Seriously though, why don't they just make it launch an
updater sitting in the diagnostic partition of the drive?
Most people don't even have access to floppy diskettes anymore
(I certainly don't), and I wouldn't even know where to find any these
days. I'm sure my local Staples and OfficeMax would laugh me out of
the store for asking for them.
