Thanks for the info and Mac SE link. Interesting what you've said
about the printer port of the powerbooks, maybe this will turn out to
be the issue with the 150....? 

The Mac SE due to arrive is an SE 4/20 800K. Presuming 4MB RAM/20MB
hard drive. It has a standard floppy which I think is single or double
sided/double density type (?) but also an external floppy drive of
which I don't yet know the specs. I missed out on the 1.4MB FDHD
version also up for sale.

Not going to do anything with the EMU II until I've tried ths one out.
Just hoping I don't have issues using floppies between this, the
powerbook and/or Macdisk under Windows PC now...! 

Thanks for the reply. 

John.
