Trey, go to http://www.asy.com and download "TransMac". I use this to
make disks for All my MACs, from MACs files, that I get from the web.
One thing though, get some 720K PC floppys, and re-format to 800k using
TransMac or another MAC. ( 720K PC disks are just like the MAC 800K,
except formated totally differant ) If you keep formating the
HighDensity disks (1.44) down to DoubleDensity, they won't last for very
long, if they will work at all. It would be like using a VW transaxle on
a Cadiliac V8, the frist few times it's used it May work, but.....
