Three years is NOT a "very (!) long time."
Did Apple sell Macs with floppy drives in 2000 ? I can't remember, but I do know that the iMac was released in 1998 and had dropped this ancient technology.
I'd venture to say there are a LOT more working CPUs out there that HAVE floppy drives than don't.
Apple doesn't care, Apple doesn't sell Macs with floppy drives and hasn't done so for QUITE some time (better ?).
The showed the industry that the 1.44MB floppy was redundant and therefore develop their OS accordingly.
I am going to back you up on this one, there is no way there are more with floppies than without ... sorry but no Mac in 6 years has shipped with a floppy ...
