Hello, I was wonering if anyone could help me with this:
I recently aquired an old laptop, IBM Thinkpad 560Z 96Mb RAM PentiumII.
Its getting on and not up to much but it was free and if I can get MS office onto it will suite my needs for the moment. My problem is that it doesn't have a CD drive so i can't install anything fro cd, the machine has a PC slot with card that runs a floppy dive that came with it, could I install office using this instead? It also has a USB port.
Ideally though a cd drive would be best so I could install other stuff. I was after some advice as to what external cd drive might be compatible, i've seen some on ebay for <£20 but i don't know if they will work. Any advice appreciated, Thanks.
