Is there a real inexpensive way to add a 3.5" floppy drive to a floppyless SS1?
They are certainly cheap enough from PC sources, if I knew the right drive
and cable to get.

Is it possible to use one of the 1.44 MB Sony drives, that Apple uses in the
newer MacIIs. We have a few of these on hand. They have one socket style
connector on them for power and data, rather than a separate edge connector
for data, and 3 pin power connector I'm used to seeing on floppies.
