How do I put games on my Mac book? I don't mean Frogger lol!

I've got some old games I want to play but the problem is that this Mac book does not have a floopy drive. Can I get Apple to install a floopy drive for me. I have Firefox version 2.0.0.12. Also, can I print things out if I dont have a printer?

Can I just put the floopy disks into where the CD's and DVD's go? Will that work?

I just tried putting my floopy disks into where the CD's and DVD's go and now my floopy disk is stuck. And I can't get it out.

Can I have one of your phone numbers so that I can call you for some help? I will pay for the long distance call.

You can however save as PDF and then print those at a later date.

USB floppy drives are dirt cheap and available at Wal-Mart.

Now I know you're not serious.
