Unplugging Flash Drives

[Magnusfarce]

I operate most of my computers with Win2k and have begun using flash drives
for some of my data transfer. As handy as they are, I get frustrated by the
several keystrokes needed to safely remove them. How necessary is this
procedure, and are there any safe shortcuts? (I feel a little sheepish
about complaining about something that takes only a few seconds, but ... )

If you don't dismount the drive, you will chance loosing data.
