Fun fact: As of El Capitan from 10-ish years ago, Macs can no longer read floppies. They removed drivers from the kernel so some people upgraded and couldn’t read their disks anymore.
I got for for a 486SX project! They’re pretty sweet. push buttons on the front to switch between 99 virtual floppies. I had forgotten just how much you can’t do on 3.1, 95 and 98 without a standard floppy drive available.
They make USB peripheral floppy drives now for like $15. Its like the shittiest thumb drive ever.

I’m afraid that it’s been years so I don’t remember the details.

I’d bet that they don’t have USB ports on their prison computers at all.
