in Byte a few months ago (the NeXT review issue), there was a blurb about
a (supposedly 100%) ST225-compatible 20 MB removable floppy drive which 
is supposed to be priced to directly compete with the Seagate hard drive.
the article sez the disks would (be made by Kodak?) cost about $8 each.
if it is in fact plug-compatible with the hard drive, you could theoretically
just open up your SH204 and drop this puppy in. how you get the disks in
and out after you close the cover is another matter *8^). finding the disks
could also provide hours of fun...

(some SH204's use ST225's, right?)
