>HaHaHa You've got to be kidding me!!! Floppy disks!!! They died out about the same time as the dinosaurs LOL Floppy disks only had 1.44MB of storage so you would need about 2,307 floppies for Windows 8 ?? I can't stop laughing!!! HaHaha And to think somebody asked that question

Flipping out like that in the official answers.microsoft.com forums?

Because my dx50 has way better throughput bigger. Along with my Matrox millenia card, 8 megs of ram (way overkill so far), I can easily pull 60 fps in doom, and 24fps in quake.

Plebs.
