Floppy drives are legacy devices in my opinion. I like to keep them around just in case though. Of course, bootable CDs are much more commonplace now.

ISA slots or devices; legacy floppy disk controller (FDC); and PS/2, serial, parallel, and game ports. Add no PS2 ports device hook-ups and read this
