Okay, so... I encountered my first school project that requires that I have a floppy. My Pismo doesn't have a floppy and I won't be using floppy until another few years. On eBay there seems to be a large number of floppies up for auction but I want something to black like my pismo. The only ones I've found that are black are the Dell, Sony, and Teac drives. Will they work on my 'book?

If you are looking for an external, then any USB drive should work, at least in OSX.
You can get a SuperDisk floppy to use internally with a Pismo, which goes in the expansion bay. I have one that I use with a Pismo and Lombard. They come up cheap on eBay frequently enough, or check with the Swap List. OSX recognizes them with no software, OS9 may need the downloadable driver. They won't format disks in PC format, but reading and writing to same are fine.
