I have an old Mac Plus computer that I purchased used in 1986-7.
It has a slot for the 5.25 floppies. My problem is that a 5.25 inch floppy disc is “ stuck” in the disc slot.
I tried to release it with a safety pin but it will not extrude.
I do not think the Mac Plus has its own OS because I get the blinking ? icon on the screen.
If you would like to use this computer and tinkering with it might help, be my guest.
I live in Newton.
Let me Know.
