-
- I picked up a file called Macette.exe from sumex-aim.stanford.edu -- yes, it
- is a PC program!! :-)
-
- Macette.exe reads and writes HD Mac disks in a PC HD drive. It is shareware
- -- there is a shareware screen that comes up.
-
- For 400K/800K mac disks, you need a hardware modification like Central Point's
- Copy II PC Option Board.
