Mary,

My PowerBook has system 10.3.6.

When I plug in the VST, it is recognized and I can up/download files. But if
I look through the finder menus there isn't anything that indicates I can
erase or format the floppy. The VST is a Model FDUSB-M. I have OS 9
installed. I can run IE and a couple of other programs that are OS 9. My
only concern about loading the VST software is possible interaction with OS
10. I guess I could just try it and see what happens but I'd hoped to find
someone who has a similar setup.

Ray
