Jane, thank you so much for mentioning the Dock II FDD cable. I have been looking for months just knowing that there was a cable that would let me use my 701c FDD with my 760ED, but I was never able to find it and I guess too lazy to post a question to the list. I called IBM parts as soon as I read your post and ordered one. The price for the cable is $15.25. Thanks- Eric Giles
