It goes inbetween your drive controller card and your floppy drives, and, in addition to allowing you to copy ANYTHING, it allows you to format a (low density) Mac disk, read and write to a Mac disk, and do just about anything else. It works in DOS (no Win stuff I know of), so it doesn't display graphics, just file names like a dos directory. I know that IBM's aren't supposed to be able to read/write Mac disks because of that variable speed thing, but I also know the card works. I use it often. -- +---------------------------------------------------+ | Edward Hefter gt2852c@prism.gatech.edu | | Currently Surviving the Georgia Tech Experience | +---------------------------------------------------+
