Please no HTML garbage on this list. Didn't I mention yesterday that you
would need a floppy drive in order to update your BIOS? Although it was
stated recently that newer ThinkPads can have their BIOS updated from HD,
I'm not aware this is the case with the 560's. So don't be so cheap and go
buy yourself a floppy drive.
