Works for a PC, not on a Mac, May 31, 2002

A new writer recently got a Sony Cybershot and brought in his Memory Stick and disk adapter for us to download his pictures onto our Macintosh systems. Here's what we found out:
1: It does not work with external USB floppy drives (took forever to come up- and then it showed a blank 32K disk.

The floppy disk adapter perfectly suits people like myself who still have old computers without USB. One first installs the software from the included CD and then formats the memory stick. Be warned that you had better print or save any images you already might have on the memory stick before formatting as all data is lost in formatting.
Once you've formatted you can take pictures and immediately upload and print them if desired by inserting the memeory stick to the floppy and inserting the floppy into your FD drive.
