Actually, this brings me around, to a slightly-OT topic, but On-T for  
this thread...

I have an old MacSE that needs a system installation. It boots up to  
the "?" symbol. Only problem is, its not a SE model with a  
"SuperDrive" that can read the newfangled 1.44 mb floppies, just  
those 800k ones.

So anyone have some? No need to reply to the list, just drop me a  
line, t'would be much appreciated.

thanks
