Hmmm lets be sane here:

Size of data for AO 640mb
Capacity of floppy disk 1.44mb

Number of times you'd have to copy a segment of rar to the floppy = 640/1.44=444.4 times!

Double it because its 444 times write and 444 times read = 888.

Assume writing one full floppy disk takes 30 seconds (likley much longer though, and 1 disk will die after so many reads/writes).

((30 * 888) / 60) / 60 = 7.4 hours.

So.. buy a usb cd-rom, get it from steam or using your home network would take far less time effort and pain :P
My AO and AE seem to be 174MB...

The point I was saying was that it doesn't have USB so the CD-ROM thing won't work, Steam is annoying to use, and I don't know how I would connect it to the network.
