I managed to pull an Apple CD-ROM out of an old Power Mac 6300 I found in
the basement!  It's not fast, but it does the trick.  Thanks for the
heads-up on this.

These puppies are not fast, but we take what we can get here!  The
wonderful world of non-profits....   Now all we need is a power adapter,
and we can let folks take these on the road.  eBay, here I come!!

BTW, if anyone out there has an adapter that'll work with the 2300c,
please drop me a line off-list and let's talk.

Thanks for the help!
