Just a comment on the "floppy disk burner" comment: we're talking about a technology that has not been in common use for over a decade. (Rememeber, Apple pulled the floppy drive out of iMacs in 1997 or so.) Very little software has been distributed on floppies for about 15 years. People haven't really been saving data to floppies for about 20 years. Is it any wonder that someone gets the terminology wrong?

On top of that, any one of us could end up saying something stupid like that. I know a lot of people used to ask for "Apple II ROMs" for emulation, and they were talking about games rather than the system's firmware. (They were actually looking for disk images.) I frequently muck up on terminology for Windows based systems, since I'm more attuned to Unix linguistics. And so on. When you make fun of people for mistakes like that, chances are that they won't learn and remedy it. They will just be turned off and hostile to you.
