This is actually my setup as well. I've been using the CD since it first came out way back when with Charles' distro (I think it was 1.02).
I think the ability to lock the floppy with the sliding tab is invaluable. Test, make and save the changes, lock the tab and you can leave it right in the drive. Power Failure? No problem, no action needed and forget worrying about someone injecting a rootkit or what have you into system, no way to save it without physical access. Other than SD cards, do any of the CF/USB sticks offer a write protect switch? If so, I haven't seen one.
