- Have an acquaintance who recently moved from an apple to a PC machine,
- unfortunately, he no longer has the apple and now wishes to transfer some
- data from some apple disks of his to MS-DOS format. My question, anything
- (software, etc) out there to accomplish the task? Seen several suggestions
- to similar problems, but all involved a serial link with an apple, which
- obviously is no longer a direct option.
-
- Also, have a Central Point Option Board (transcopy board) from years back,
- which will read Mac floppies, but find no reference to reading data
- off of Apple II disks (it does claims to duplicate them, but we want
- to transfer the actual data off of them.
-
- Thanks in advance.
