I'm trying to let my daughter use a zip on her PC. For my Mac all I have to do is drag & drop a 68k file into 'extensions'. I checked the Iomega site and what appears to be the PC zip drive is 1.43Mb. That will not fit on a floppy disk. Since she is not on line, I would have to download the driver to floppy (currently our only common medium) to give her. The Mac zip driver is so small I can load it on a floppy along with a 1 meg boot drive, very handy. Why would the PC zip drive be so much larger? Other than that, where do you put the zip driver on a PC? I have never operated any microsoft syatem.
