Floppy drive is bad and it turns out the 5200 series was all slow as hell because of a bad motherboard architecture. Classic II is great though I love it. its all up for sale though. #4 Sat, 8 Jan 2011 - 00:29 68kMLA A NIB 5200 would be worth upgrading to a 5400 or (better still) a 5500. Nice machines. The 5200 was indeed crap — I should know, I had one years ago. The upgrade is just a logic board swap, isn't it? #5 Sat, 8 Jan 2011 - 20:52 68kMLA the 5200 wasnt new jus the classic ii. I am using the 5200 as a donor for the floppy drive
