[OT] Seeking Mac Powerbook Floppy Drive - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

...
 Well, a diskette jammed in the PB 5300ce's drive
last week,
and in addition to a spring or something broken or missing
on the eject mechanism, I seem to have knocked the upper 
head out of alignment, so it's kaput (and the topic is
admittedly off-topic as the 5300 is a 1996 product).

Assuming no one has one, I'd really appreciate it if those
of you who come by such things on a fairly regular basis
would keep an eye out for one. They may be unique to the
5300, or may be used in one of the contemporaneous models.

I'm sure Shreve Systems likely has them, but their prices
vary widely, perhaps based on supply/demand, perhaps not.

If you don't want to deal with subscribing just to look for one item, let 
me know, and I will be happy to act as proxy for you.
