NMAI, huh?

Yep.  Did two summer internships there while I was in college.  Its by far the smallest of the Smithsonians, so you can see all of it in about two hours.  Its worth seeing at least once just for the architecture.

Our computers have them as well...  The last time our server had a problem we had to go out and buy a pack of them to make the boot disk.
That is why I ordered my new server (Dell 2950, quad core 2.83, 16GB RAM, 1.2 TB RAID, Windows Server 2008 - best OS I've EVER touched!) WITH a floppy drive.  It's USB, but who cares - it'll do the job when I need it!

That sounds like what I need.  I'm still functioning with 1GB ram and 300GB on my computer, which I've maxed out and back up on two different 300GB external drives.  I want several internal drives, and need to be looking at 1TB drives x 3 and a lot more RAM.  And yes...I'll stick the floppy in too!

Windows Server 2008 - best OS I've EVER touched!)

Okay, I'll still be preferential to Leopard, but it is a very stable server OS that has the best of Vista with the server technologies.  Heck I've got 4 servers at work (eh 5 if you count an XP box that's running the automated stuff) from Windows Server 2000, 2003, 2008 and Red Hat Linux 5 Enterprise....

If you need lots of disk space, look at a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+.  My former employer has two of them to store his music collection on.  They're pretty darn reliable, and when they fail, support is pretty good.  Amazon has them at a pretty good price.
