[Format floppies with Macintosh]
And then they become 800k disks, which a PC can't read.

[HDD setup stuff costs more than drive is worth.]
This is another thing I hate, when companies use software checks to enforce
hardware monopolies. That's SOOOO stupid. Any hardware could do, but the
O/S makes sure it's a Genuine XXYZ-Corp. device and barfs if it's not.
Guess I just get to deal with the internal HDD...
(I think it's 20 meg, but it makes scary noises...)
Buying new gear for this is out of the question.
