Is there any way possible in the world that I can read 800k mac disks

Hmmm. Probably not on the wintel boxes, but MacOS 8.6 machines
should be able to read the disks.

Just as long as the Mac OS 8.6 machine has a built in floppy drive and
not a USB floppy drive it should just work.
My dad once had a program on his 486 with win 3.1.1 and DOS 6.22 called
Mac-In-Dos that allowed him to read Mac OS disks... I'm pretty sure it
wouldn't work with 800k DD disks though since the drive/controller isn't
capable of the kind of formating used to get 800k out of a DD floppy...
that and it proably wouldn't work on a new version of Windows.
