This is in response to the person with the stuck floppy. This is going to sound really weird but: One day a floppy of mine got stuck in a Mac Plus at work. I tried all the usual ways to get it out (paper clip, reinserting the disk and re-ejecting). Just as I was about to track down a Mac Openin' tool to do some surgery, a co-worker suggested turning the Mac upside down and ejecting. I laughed but tried it and VOILA! Out popped the disk! Strange but True! ~~~~
