>>I have an old Mac II with two 720k floppies…
>>Can I buy a PowerPC accelerator for it from Daystar?
As of this time, there are no current plans to offer PowerPC upgrades for the
Mac II.

>>I could then have 1.4MBy floppies?
You will actually have to obtain an FDHD upgrade from Apple, or some other
third party who still might have them (I believe Apple has discontinued the

SuperDrive.
Hope that this helps, and thanks for your interest in DayStar products.
