Did you read his post?

I remember the two previous attempts to sell macs at BB. They
honestly tried to talk people out of buying them. That is not side
by side comparison. I listened to a salesman tell customers that
you did not wan an iMac since it did not have a floppy and thus
you could not restore the system and you'd have to bring it back
if it froze up. I told the customers and the salesman that you
could restore the system with a CD. He went on saying that you
still needed a floppy if you could not do it with a CD. I then
explained that the system (8.5 at the time) would not fit on a
floppy and that I'd never had any problem so serious that
booting from the system CD would not cure it. The doofus kept
on sith the "but you still need a floppy to restore the system".
Good luck with BB Apple. You'll need it.
