If you've got a PC on the net, you can down load some programs 1)to turn regular PC floppies into mac ones and 2)get system software that will run the machine and put it on the floppie 3) maybe even find some old software lurking around on the net that will run on it.

Hi,
I was raised in a mac family so today at the goodwill
when i saw a little Mac Classic sitting outside in a
pile of junk and rain clouds overhead that were
threatening to distroy it i bought it, because i felt
sorry for it. Now I have a Mac Classic and know pretty
much nothing about it. My family had an LCII when i
was very young, but i havent seen it since it gave up
the ghost i was about 9 and that pretty much sums up
my knowledge of anything pre-system 8.
So, I got my machine home and plugged it in (yes i
bought it without even seeing if it would turn on) and
i get a screen with a picture of what appears to be a
floppy disk with a question mark blinking in the
middle. I have no keyboard, no mouse, and no software.
I would love to hear from anyone with any suggestions
about how to salvage it, or even just a place to
start.
Thanks,
Veronica
