I did this for a person in Canada a few years ago. She had data files on 5 1/4 disks she had used with a ][c. Then she got a Mac, got rid of the ][c, and realilzed her data was unreadable. I put the data on a couple of 3 1/2 disks and, as an expreriment, burned it to a CD also. She should be able to get at it with just about any machine.
