There's an electronics waste/collection place by my house, and every once in awhile, I check out what's in the dumpster behind the building. So far I've acquired a Netpliance I-Opener and, more relevant to this forum, a Macintosh Classic II.

I got an ADB keyboard and mouse from someone on another forum for cheap, so I can actually use it now - so far I've ascertained that it's running 7.1 and has the full 10MB RAM installed. I *think* it has an 80MB hard drive, but I'm not certain.

I'd like to put 7.5 on it, but Apple's download is only one big disk image. Is there a way to split it up into floppy-sized bites, or am I going to just have to buy a set of floppies on eBay? Additionally, I've seen online that it will take any SCSI hard drive - is this true? e.g. could I put a much larger drive in it?
