Unless you enjoy the pain of floppies, why not forget them. You have two serial ports at your disposal. One cable, a one-time fiddle to set up, and "Bye bye, floppies". The SE is just a tarted-up Plus, so there should be no hiatus between them but for the DB-9/miniDIN-8 cable procurement.

Mmm, no I don't enjoy floppies. Less and less than before. Appletalk will happen, but I still need an 800k disk to boot the plus. This thread has convinced me to just order a box online :)

My goal is to get one 800k floppy with system 6 and ethertalk booting my plus so I can have a silent (fanless) mpd client sitting in my breakfast nook.
