- I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY doubt that there is a Macintosh emulator
- for two reasons: hardware and the Macintosh copyrights that they have been,
- well, anal about. Macintosh-formatted disks, I am pretty sure, cannot be
- read by PC's (although if you have a Mac, PC disks can be read/altered, so
- use a Mac to convert a file to FAT file system and THEN use the Macutils
- program).
