Read the ad carefully
Please note: This device requires both an internal USB and an floppy header in
order to enable both and media card reader and floppy drive.


It's not gonna work, your MPC has no USB.
Sorry to dissappoint. :(

None of the Floppy/card combination drives will work AFAIK
You need either an Atapi, Ide or a Scsi type drive to be able to connect it to the MPC2000XL.

I know you are on a budget but your best bet is to scrimp and save for a bit and visit http://www.scsicardreaders.com
They will sort you out with a suitable drive

Thank very much for the referral, *Pilchard*. I am selling a nice little IDE card reader drive now for $39.00:

It comes with everything you'll need except for the CF card and I have those available as well on the same page.
