Hello, John-
I used my Duo 280c for two years with no dock and no floppy drive. I simply
networked it to my main Mac and installed things that way. Eventually I
found a used mini-dock and then got a full dock recently. I bought my
DuoDock Plus on Ebay, and I've seen several good deals for Duo docks there.
Check it out.
