I have an ancient 512k Mac with two 400k (single-side) drives.  This is of
course rapidly getting impossible to use.  I'm going to get a 800k (or maybe
a 1.4M -- is this possible ?) drive, but the pricing policy in Finland is such
that a 800k drive costs something like $350.  Are the prices significantly
better in the Manhattan, New York area ?  My sister is probably visiting me
during the summer, and she could probably pick it up for me, if she can find
the place (and dares go there...).
So, what's the best price for a 800k (and/or 1.4M if it's possible to install
one on a original 512k Mac) in this area ?
