[NTLK] System 7 in the browser

Can't remember off the top of my head, but make sure the CC can take 1.44mb floppies.  Even with transmac, I'm pretty sure a PC floppy drive can't write an 800k disk image to a high density disk, and even if it could, an 800k only Mac still wouldn't read it.  Mac Pluses are that way, but if you get one working, you can use that to get the other going.

I'm in the US, or otherwise I'd offer.

Best of luck,
-Northcott

I faced the same problem when I got my Performa 630.
TransMac allowed me to write the floppy disks and i got the machine running
in no time.

It's a 15 day trial, but 15 days is enough to install OS 7 ;)
