- Apple PowerBook/DOS Companion
-
- Copyright 1993, Apple Computer, Inc.
-
- The Apple PowerBook/DOS Companion brings four key compatibility products
- together in a single package—one that provides the software and cables you
- need to make your PowerBook and your MS-DOS or Windows computer work
- together. Macintosh PC Exchange software from Apple immediately recognizes
- MS-DOS, Windows, or OS-2 disks you insert into your PowerBook. DOS
- directories appear as folder icons, and files appear as document icons.
- You can work with them just as you would with any other Macintosh files.
-
- With the PowerBook/DOS Companion’s version of MacLinkPlus/PC, you can
- connect your Macintosh PowerBook to any DOS or Windows-based desktop or
- laptop computer. You simply use the individual cable, a diskette, or
- your own modem. You can easily transfer and convert files between the
- two computers. With more than 700 conversion combinations possible,
- you can choose from among the most popular word processing, graphics,
- spreadsheet, and database formats. The conversion process keeps the
- format of the original document intact.
-
- The PowerBook/DOS Companion has the MacVGA Video Adapter so that with
- most VGA monitors and a Power-Book 160 or 180, or with a PowerBook Duo
- 210 or 230 connected to a Macintosh Duo MiniDock, you can display your
- work in 256 colors.
-
- Then, when you’re ready, you can use PowerPrint and your PowerBook
- to print text and graphics with your existing printer, whether it’s
- a laser, ink-jet, or dot-matrix. In all, the PowerBook/DOS Companion
- makes it possible for you to work with more than 1000 different
- printers.
