Stupid Mac question

[ffutures]

If a data-logger device is described as coming with Mac software on floppy discs, about 15 years old, we're obviously talking an early-ish iteration of the old Mac OS. If cables are mentioned in this context they will obviously be serial.

What are the chances of getting something like this to work with my iBook, assuming I can find an appropriate serial - USB adapter and some way of getting the software onto the mac? Always assuming the disks are still good, of course...

I've got a ruby iMac you could have, if that would help.

Getting it to you in functional condition might be a problem, though…

No thanks - basically, I have everything I need to use it on a PC, I was hoping it might be possible to get it working with my iBook, but I definitely don't want to get another mac for the sake of using the software.
