Yes and yes. There is no need for a floppy drive to be built into the
computer. If you find you need one, you can always get a usb floppy
drive. I have one, and I think I've used it maybe once or twice over
the past year and I do computer repair/tech support for a living. So I
wouldn't bother with a floppy drive if I were you.
