- Does anyone know if I can read a CD-Rom for the Amiga (eg FISH disks)
- on an IBM PC ? (the PC has a Soundblaster Pro CD-Rom drive)
- I can't afford to buy a CD-ROM drive for the Amiga, so I figured
- maybe it would be possible to stick the CD into the PC's CD-Rom
- drive and copy the files I want to an 800k 3.5" and then use
- dod2dos or similar to read them on the Amiga.
-
- What do you think ?
- thanks in advance for your help,
- Jonathan

- When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger have handled this?"
