Can a PowerMac handle a ProDOS floppy? I know my PowerBook 540c and SE/30
can. I also know that when I had to read in a lot of floppies I broke out
my PowerBook 540c instead of using my PowerMac 8500. I've wondered if the
real reason for dropping floppies isn't because they suck so bad on
PowerMacs speed wise!

So basically my questions are:
1. Which version of the Mac OS was support for ProDOS dropped
2. Can any PowerMacs read ProDOS floppies
