As to why I am using the PowerBook 3400c that is because it is the only Mac
that I have with a working floppy.
I have a Quadra 610 with a missing floppy and a G3 with a bad floppy and a G4
with no floppy.
I wanted to try to install Excel 4.0 because, A. I have it and B. I was
thinking it will work with my Quadra 610.
Beige macs have a problem sometimes sucking dust-bunnies through the
drive slots, either the cd or floppy, worth checking. A simple drive
cleaning disk doesn't hurt also. Seems strange that 3 out of 5 would
fail but not unheard of.
