I've been using the Rapport and the 2.4 Drive for 6 weeks.  It been all
it has advertised.  I use it to convert MS-DUNG files for use of the Mac
I perfer the Mac for large and complex projects.  I've encountered no 
problems with WP4.2 files to WP Mac, Dbase III+ to FoxBase Mac (this did
require the data be transferred in ASCII instead of .DBF).  WP4.2 to
WORD 4.0 conversion is not what I would like.  I suspect it may be the
method(s) I've been using.  The ability of the 2.4 Drive to format HD
disks to 2.4 M was a factor in my selection.  It was my intention to use
this a backup of my hard disk.  Diskfit HD Backup won't recognize the
increased capacity.  I believe FastBack II may be the solution, but I 
have been able to try it yet.  I have tried to use the 2.4 as the 
destination when downloading using Zterm.  It seems to reduce the 
efficency of the download.  I haven't experimented enough to determine
if it is particular to the 2.4 or common to any floppy drive.   The 
biggest complaint it that this equipment makes it so easy to take work
home I'm take more of it to be done there.  I'll post the address later
after I check the documentation.
