 my 750mhz Athlon has a 3.5/5.25 combo drive in it (both drives in a
 single half height 5.25 case). I don't think I have used the 5.25 half...
 but I put it in "just in case".

I just put a Teac 5.25 in my AMD 1200. Win2k picked right up on it. I install
5.25 floppies on all my modern machines since older ones use the same size. I
recently lucked out and found some electronic eject 5.25 drives that fit
perfectly in my PS/2 95 servers. Pretty cool to have a computer that can
natively support 3 floppy drives.
