I don't really like the floppy adapter anymore these days. These day the
files are too big to fit on a floppy disk and IMHO the only good thing left is
an emergency boot disk for when you're on the road and your Duo's hard drive
throws up and quits working. Other than that it takes up too much space in my
carrying case and adds a few extra pounds total.
I find myself using the Duo SCSI adapter a lot more anyhow especially since it
can be used to hook up my 280c to my other Macs as an external hard drive.
It's even possible to use it with a PC equipped with SCSI interface but I have
yet to find a PC program that can view Mac formatted hard drives.
