I purchased a Sony VAIO laptop last fall with a USB floppy optional. I have yet to need it, so this "option" has been a good savings for me. I am glad to see this by Dell!
I have USWest RADSL with a local ISP. The first weeks of service my Cisco DSL Modem was "Trained" for, and getting, 1.5Mb/s. I only pay for 256Kb/s so I asked a USWest tech about it. He told me my ISP sends the speed my Modem should be set to, to USWest when the service was created. Then USWest sets the speed each time my modem comes on-line by sending this "Training" signal down the wire.
I now get a solid 512Kb/s, (maybe I should have kept my mouth shut:)
