Hi Leif, not yet because I still have to paint the case but take a look at this
item.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/111606621433?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
the auctions states you can play games of the external drive. I just bought one
that way I can keep the internal floppy and play ADF games off the external.
Take a look at the auction and let me know if you think I'm right, thanks

Hey "Approximately US $43.17" isn't too bad, and "only" US $14.02
shipping. They also have the pins installed so you can update the
firmware, which I gather from Michael's link is still under
development.
Did you mount it inside the case?
