Ken,
Thanks for your response. So if I get an external 1.4meg floppy drive
and a
newer machine, it will be able to read the data off the 800k floppy?
Will I
have a problem with the OS or are they all backward compatible?
External USB drives will, AFAIK, NOT read 800Kb floppies. With a beige
G3, you could use AppleTalk over the serial ports, or the external SCSI
drive that has been mentioned.
