    Hi,

    I would like to request the the Mac OS version of Parallels VM support USB Floppies as a native drive. This is since the Newer Macs do not have Floppy drives. This allows for better support of Legacy Operating Systems such as DOS, Win 98, etc. Sometimes you need to boot with a floppy to get those systems installed and setup.

    I did manage to get a USB floppy drive to work, but it's showing up as drive B which could be a problem for older software. It would be nice if the VM just picked up the USB floppy drive and made it a choice for adding a "Real Floppy Drive" in the config.

    Thanks.
