Are office people really that, umm shall we say...slow?

I just went to a local computer show today. I was happy to find that a few vendors had components available from disassembled computers or whatever. I picked up a 3com 3C905-TX PCI ethernet card, an ATI Mach64 video card, and a very nice Sound Blaster 16, all used of course. The Mach64 had "Monitor" written in marker on the slot cover. Do office people really need to remind themselves where to plug the monitor in? I have also seen a 3.5" floppy drives marked "hard drive a:" and the 5.25" floppy, marked, "floppy drive b:". What's the deal? I also picked up a new AMD K6-II 500 to replace my IBM 6x86 233, and a nice new heatsink/fan for it too. Hopefully I'll have my re-made socket 7 setup, up and running Linux soon :-) Chad Fernandez Michigan, USA
