I have some old floppys with pics on them I'd like to get, but my new puter doesn't have a floppy, any ideas?

The easiest thing to do is just ask a friend to email the files to you, but if you want you can buy a floppy drive (if you can find it) for probably pretty low, although I've never seen one myself.
Your alternatives are either buying a drive, taking one out of an old computer, or just using another computer to access the files, and either put them on a USB memory stick, email them, or print them out.
I suggest just using another computer and emailing them to yourself, if you know someone who has a computer with a floppy drive, it shouldn't be too hard to find.

go to your local library and see if their computer's have a floppy drive. if so upload the images to http://www.flickr.com/ and then download them on your own computer.
if you have a usb flash drive take it with you and transfer the images to it instead.

Uh, buy one? They'are about $20 or so, and not that hard to install any way.
