If you want to expand the iMac, ct magazine found that it has the pads for
a 20 pin connector just for an Apple 3.5" drive just like any previous Mac.
All you need do is solder the 20 pin male header into place, run a cable out
through a gap in the case and voila, 3.5" floppy drive (and voided warranty).
