If you can not get on line with the PC that you want to install on, then you will need a floppy drive. System information will be copied to the floppy. The floppy can then be taken to another PC with Internet access. An authorization code will be transfered to the floppy. The floppy can then be returned to the PC you want to install the program on, and only that pc..

Nothing outdated about that, it's just plain up to date security against thieves.

If you are on line with the pc you want to install on, you don't need to use the floppy method.

Hope this helps.
