========================================================================
I just purchased a Sharp PC-4501 laptop computer with one 3.5"/720K
floppy drive.  I want to remove the 720 drive and install two 1.44mb
3.5" drives.  Will the internal floppy controller work?  Will I need
new device drivers for MSDOS 3.3?

Also, is the internal port(s) for the optional monochrome/CGA adaptor
cards, etc., equivalent to a standard XT 8bit slot?  If it is, I want
to make a board to plug into this internal port and run it out the
M/CGA case punchout.  Has anyone done this?  If so, how?
