I actually want to myself, but my 10-year-old laserjet 4ML refuses to stop working perfectly. 🙂 and 🙁
 
First, the floppy diskette drive gets canned and now the parallel printer port gets dumped. I'm glad to see that things are progressing in the right direction. 😀 😀 😀
 
I don't like that they canned the floppy.
Before they should have come up with a REAL alternative.
CD-RW support in Bios or something.
Or SD/MMC or something.


But that D600 sure look damn tempting with an external Floppy ....
I will probably get it in half a year when all the bugs got worked out.
(Check out Toms Hardware how the resolded the motherboard for the D800. Tss tss tss. I don't want something like that!)
