+---------------

The Mac IIx and SE/30 have the ability to read and write 720KB and 1.44Mb
3.5" DOS disks, and there (is|will be) an upgrade kit for ordinary Mac IIs
to do the same thing.  (As usual, we SE owners get left out.  Sigh.  I
wouldn't mourn for more than 30 seconds if John Sculley disappeared
tracelessly....)
