[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Re^2: When I hacked up my floppy drive...oops.

The other thing to watch out for (glad this didn't happen to yoU!) is
NOT to mess with the sloppy floppy drive.  It is extremely fragile--the
upper head WILL break if you look at it funny.  This is a big design
problem with the Sony drive.

Don't take it out of the metal case, either--you'll hit the head and
mess it up.

If you do, well, I can get 'em fixed--watch out for the places in the
back of MacWeek; most of 'em can't really fix dead heads (followup to
net.gdead :-) though all claim to.  There's an artificial embargo on
them.
