My laptop is a Dell.  It has one slot for the cdrom or floppy.  However, if
I want to use the floppy while the cd is in the slot, there is a cable wich
can connect the floppy to the parellel port.

Is there a speaking CD available for installing debian? I have a laptop
with one of those drive bays that you swap the drives, so I'd either have
to install from all floppies or all CD. My laptop has a bigger hard drive
so I can't really transfer my partition over and recompile for dectalk
express.
