But Angelo was talking about his borrowed external floppy drive, wasn't he? Some of these could read only 800k disks; later models read the newer, larger size floppy. And they should work on the Mac Plus just fine (I own a few, but none of my Pluses work - only my Classics, Classic IIs, SEs and SE/30s work). -- Timothy -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
