I saw something like this, as a feature of the eMachines system as it appears for $648 in the current Wal-Mart ad. In looking at the CompUSA web site, I found this one http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=299264&pfp=BRO WSE
This seems like one option, toward moving away from zip disk storage, and upgrading to a DVD drive, as well. I've read about a few folks, on this list, that have even pulled the floppy drive from their beige G3, in favor of another HD or another disc storage option. Could the floppy drive bay be the best place for me to put the above card reader, then I could replace the zip 750 drive with a DVD drive? Since I've already got an Apple 8x4x32 CD-RW drive installed, what do I really need to look for, in a DVD drive, since bootable is a non-issue? Lastly, according to the CompUSA page about the reader, the interface is USB. If I'm not mistaken, the Sonnet Tango (USB/FireWire combo) card has one internal USB port, doesn't it? Yes, it's been a while since I've been inside the box, after finally installing all of my PCI cards. The next time I go into the box will be when I upgrade the processor (again), and upgrade the internal HD's (again).
