system that could be booted from a floppy disk and run from memory

Not long from now, in fact it may have happened already, a substantial portion of the population will have never used or even seen a floppy disk.

I am nostalgic for lots of old things, but floppy disks aren't one of them. Rest in peace, funky tech!

I do like the idea of a firewall OS that can run in memory and be rebooted to a clean state if ever there's a compromise. Amazing how much effort and time go into figuring out how to dickish things to other peoples' systems. Firewall - set phasers on "deep fry gonads!"
