You might be able to do the hack install on a OS 8 floppy disk set, but it'll take several times as long.

Um... the LC III cant run OS 8... can it? Click to expand... Nah, but you can hack the system file to make it compatible. You need an external SCSI CD-ROM though. Linky!

About the OS, if you're going to use the newest OS it can run, get a copy of 8.1. No, wait, NetBSD . You would be SERIOUSLY wasting your time with 7.6, 7.5.5/7.1 is the way to …

ADB Keyboard and Mouse — #9

I have about 6 ADB keyboards and Mice. I get them for free a lot of the time. If you need them they can easily be found on freecycle, at least in my area.
