James, Does your USB floppy drive work? I keep ordering these things and they work once or twice and then crap out. The one I have now never worked. They cost something like twelve bucks. I am willing to pay more of something that works. On Mon, 27 Apr 2020 10:39:44 -0400 James Knott via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

I think my current laptop has an RJ45 port. I bought a docking station for it, so I use that. Historically, I use the RJ45s because I transfer data to and from the laptop, and I want it to happen quickly.
I use Wifi or Ethernet. For normal use, WiFi is fine. But if I'm doing something major, such as installing an OS, then I'll use Ethernet.
I visited Canada Computers in Etobicoke, and I think I got the last desktop with slots for DVD/Blu-Ray discs (and 5-1/4 floppy drives), and controls on the front. My cat can no longer turn my computer off. You people are on your own!
At least I have an external USB floppy drive! ;-)
