Mac SE dual floppy With HD? OK, never seen one. I have an SE (single floppy w/HD) and an SE FDHD (dual floppy). I assume its an external HD? No, dual internal floppy and internal HD. It had a bright purple bracket in it that looked as if it was home made, but I found another more

My list is incredibly short and easy. One IIci with DayStar Turbo 601 and 80 megs RAM. One Radius 81/110 with a paltry 56 megs RAM. = The earth swarms with inhabitants. Why then should nature, which is fruitful to an excess here, be so very barren in the rest of the planets? Bernard de

Absolutely i'd love to have the 7.5.5 update on floppy disks know where I can get em? Navigating through Apple's new and improved support/software section of their website is a real hair-puller, but you'd eventually wind up here: http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html

Hmm, MacBinary files usually download OK onto a PC. Tried dropping them onto Stuffit Expander or running Expander then using the menu commands to manually decode them? And, um, doesn't Open Transport require at least an 030 CPU? Or have I forgotten something? Haven't ever actually used a Mac II
