Which why when NT 3[1] got its US C2 security rating (I think it was)
the machine had no floppy drives and wasn't connected to any
networks. A bit fscking useless as a workstation, but they needed the
security rating to sell to parts of the fedral government.

Please slap me around a little[2] if I'm talking crap.
