I got one of the cheap 4600's for my mom, and was just gonna use the floppy from my 400sc. I just cracked open the 4600 and there is no place to attach the floppy. Anyone know what I need to get or where I can get info on how to do this?

Just goto local puter store and get brackets?
 
I looked at a picture of the Dimension 4600 just now, it looks like the case only has 3 5.25" external bays and no 3.5 inch bays. I guess you'll have to buy a 3.5 -> 5.25 bay bracket.

there are only two 5.25 bays and no 3.5 bays.
 
A 5.25-3.5 converter or USB external FDD would work. USB would be more expensive than the converter if you already have the drive though.
