        Hi there!

i got my Mac a week ago and i have an old PC too, i have a Good modem to
the PC, and i want to use it to get Mac files as well, in order to
move files from Mac to PC (physically) i get two suggestions

1) buy an external 3.5 drive for PC, and move this to the Mac superdrive,
problem is i don't know if i can move files from the Mac to the PC, can the
superdrive write in MS-DOS format??

2) i can make a direct link btw my PC serial port and the Mac Modem port,
but do i have to buy RS232 for this or the PC modem port will be o.k.???


        If you know this subject, any more information and advice will be
very welcomed.
                                        thanks in advance
                                                Gadi Eidlheit
