Why Don’t Computers Have A ‘B’ Drive?

Floppy Disk

Wow. Not only did someone actually ask the question, but the “experts” had to look up the answer. Back in my Apple II days, if you didn’t have two floppy drives, you had to use a special program (Muffin?) to make a copy of a disk. Lots of disk swapping required.

Just wait. Next they’ll be asking, “What’s a floppy drive?”
