What to do for Stuffit

I think I am in some variant of Stuffit hell. Here is the situation. My IIci arrived today and it works great. My only other computer is a 12" Powerbook G4 (running 10.4). It has stuffit but no floppy drive, and the iici has a floppy deive, no CD, and no stuffit. The IIci also has Ethernet (runs system 7.5). Also, at work I have access to computers running Linux with floppy drives and internet access. How do you think I could best get software onto the IIci? I'm stumped. Thanks for your help!

Hunt around for a copy of Stuffit on a floppy disk image. You can write that to a real floppy disk using dd using your Linux box.

Thanks for the link. Turns out the IIci's floppy is dead (I'm pretty sure anyway), so I'll have to try something else. Argh!
