Yes, I see from reading later messages I see folks were referring to
built in floppy drives, (which I don't have on any machine I can run OS X
on, (the SE, 6112, etc.). This is what I was thinking of, my mistake.
I did want to note that you can get an external USB floppy (and I've
seen them quite cheap) that will work fine with OS X. I can see folks with
internal drives not liking that solution though.
