I seem to remember something about the floppy images being dropped
because few current (or even recent) systems have a floppy drive at
all, much less a bootable one.

I sure hope they don't start applying the same reasoning to drivers
for old-ish devices.  Some of us do not rush out and acquire
the latest/greatest whiz-giz every few months just because it's
available.
