Hahahahaha !

Now he'll want to know how to make a boot floppy. What if his PC doesn't have
a floppy drive ? Darn useful things.

Even _you_ should know that http://www.bootdisk.com has free
downloadable images for most Windows versions and other operating
systems.

Download the version you want, run it and insert a blank 1.44
floppy. When the program is done, the floppy is ready to use.
