Drive Options for Wallstreet

I have managed to lose my CD ROM Drive for my Wallstreet that I've had since new (I bought the floppy option at the time - and that is what is in the bay). I would like to upgrade to OS 9 and give the book to my parents - so I need the CD Drive. What are my options now that I need to purchase

, shipped. You could opt for a DVD-rom drive for about $10-$20 dollars more, but you'll need the DVD PC card for the Wallstreet to show DVD movies. The Wallstreet's design on the cd/dvd module makes swapping in 3rd party media drives impossible. VST, I think, used to make a cd-rw module

Anyone have suggestions for a Wallstreet II 300MHz with Linux? Yellow Dog? Ubuntu? Which kernel version? I was thinking maybe an older version would run better on the older hardware, if I can find one. Save our LAN! www.coloradogameralliance.com -- G-Books is sponsored by http

trip out of country and will blog it online wirelessly, so no reason to be satisfied with just email capability. Besides if your Dad can surf with a 100 Mhz Winblows laptop, then don't quit until you can do that (and more) with a Wallstreet. For instance, once online I found an old version of iTunes
