I doubt you can use it with a regular 800k drive.  If you do plan to
use a lot of MS-DOS floppies, I would suggest a floptical drive instead.
For the ludicrous prices Apple cahrges for the SuperDrive and controller,
you can get a floptical unit instead and use 1.44MB floppies AND special
20MB disks.
