Congratulations on switching over to Rev. What does your program do and who is the audience?
Are you downloading the Mac modules from a Mac or Windows computer? While you can develop applications in Revolution on any platform you need a Mac to actually build Mac executables. If you develop on any other platform all you need to do to build a Mac executable is to download the Revolution environment to a Mac and copy over your .rev application and build it. If you are doing your development on the Mac then you can build for all of the platforms from it. If your goal is to build cross platform apps then the Mac is the universal platform.
The floppy disk is dead. Macs haven't had them for 5 years and a lot of PCs are starting to not have them either. In addition, a floppy would not be big enough to hold Revolution applications. I would move on to CDs or direct downloads from a web page.
Perhaps you could indulge your "hobby" and buy a new Mac which can burn CDs. :-) Even a lot of PCs can burn CDs too but you won't be able to put a Mac executable on it from a CD.

So far, I have sold *4* copies of v1.0, which was written in Visual Basic. Version 2.0 is RR, and therefore cross platform. Any Mac sales PPC or 68k are therefore entirely theoretical, and possibly non-existent. I was just mulling over how to distribute it - whether to continue to use floppies or invest in in a CD burner and stick everything on the same disk.
(4 copies might not sound like much, but for the past 10 years my partner insisted she put up with my software development as a harmless but ultimately pointless hobby. Ha! )
