Re: Queston abt 760 and floppy/cd setup



Hello,

I just bought a 760XD, and it is a great machine.

As for using the floppy and the CD drive together, you'll have to get
the FDD EXternal housing, which plugs into the FDD port at the back of
the Thinkpad.

In fact, the External FDD came as standard when I bought my Thinkpad, so
I had everything I needed at the start.  I'm not sure if this practice
is the same in the US (I'm in Singapore)

Ciao!
