I remember a lot of people complaining that Apple's first iMac (released in 1998 - or was it 1997?) lacked a floppy drive.  Apple often seemed to make transitions too soon..  I think people were still using floppy disks fairly often at the time.  I think the last time I used a floppy disk was 2004 or 2005 - and that was for making backups of some of my personal data. I eventually used a USB flash drive instead.
