My Zip 250 reads PC disks just fine, without my having to reformat them to
Mac.

The 250MB disks can be found at a local Staples (in Fuji brand) formatted
for Mac, or you can get the PC-formatted ones and just erase them to Mac
format.

I've got an external SCSI Zip drive from a previous Mac, and I'd like
to use it to load up the new baby with data. (The lack of a floppy is
OK -- but I have to be able to use Zip disks.)

Not just icky but unstable as a long-term storage medium, or so I'm told.
I had a bad experience with floppies deteriorating
