Thank you ey much for your reply! :0)

For me this possibility change a lot of things. A time saving and the possibility of organizing things really cool for experiments.
Today Floppy disks price is like more than 30 euros for a box of 10. I've read somewhere, I don't remember where, thats 3.5 floppy disks Mondial production have stopped, they are now only selling old stocks. I can't imagine that's is true. But it explains the high price of only 10 floppies.. Thinking it, better to preserve  the ones I have. Buy some in lots when possible (even used). And for the first time try the Gotek floppy emaulator who like really cool.

I will buy one on the next days. Thanks to confirm this is possible to boot installs with it! Thats great!  :0)
I'm still not fixed by what model to buy, but I'm decided!
