Unless my memory is wrong (same disclaimer as yours!), I was able to use a
program on my PC to write an image file to a Mac disk...but that was likely
a high density disk destined for a Mac LCII...and perhaps that is different
than the 800k disks...?

Going from MEMORY (Always subject to adjustment/ correction] the drive
mechanisms are different. The 'pc' drives rotate at a constant speed.  
While Apple, used a 'much more technically advanced method' Rotational  
speed vaaried depending ov which track was being accessed.    [ducks
