I am sorry, I think that you got the wrong impression. I just meant if they sent it on a floppy I could print it out... I still have things on floppies, but am slowly getting them on CD's. I have a compaq and a floppy drive that is a year old... I know they are phasing them out. I have over 17 floppies with boat pictures for my Marine Hospital book that I am working on. I plan on doing those on to CD 's very soon. RIGHT NOW , CD form is the best I can do but it is slow work to convert over.

My latest computer, a Gateway, has no floppy disk drive and I think that is what is going to happen with most of the computers now.
