What exactly is the task of this box?
He said,
My intention is to load CentOS-4 complete and use the system as a
development/backup box.
If it's a mission critical oracle DB server, then you might want to
re-evaluate your medications.
If it's a home webserver you'll be okay.
As for sanity..... Floppy: Sony MPF920-Z-121 ?
wtf?
Other than a bios upgrade, when was the last time you looked at a floppy?
If I need a floppy for that, I usually burn it to CD. But I was looking
for one a few weeks ago.
Exactly John - data i have collected from personal experience;
How long my machines have each had a floppy drive (in the
past) : ~12y
Number of times i've needed on: ~12
How long my new machines have all been floppy-less: ~5 weeks
Number of times i've needed one since then: 4
Damn the irony!
