It appears you have a long time searching for a drive, what kind of Mac is it for? If it's an old PowerMac and has no USB, you could always plug in a PCI card with USB ports, and hook an external USB floppy drive. Something like this: http://www.teac.co.jp/dspd/product/magnetic/fd-05pub.html onto something like this: http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=107412 I know it works on my PowerMac 7300 pretty well..

Thanks for the tip salaxi54, but it's for an Apple IIe so..
 
Ok, but thread title was a little bit... missleading :) Anyway, there are flopppy emulators for the IIe out there, and it seems people manage to transfer floppy contents to pc first, so in case you have disks you want to keep, you could first dump content to your pc.

You are right of course it did say 'for my Macintosh' which is not an Appple II - changed now. Anyway I do have a few Macs too, and I'm aware of all the options, I just would like ... a real thing! Call me nuts, but aren't we all a little bit..:)
