I got 20-30 replies on my question if/how to read and write Mac disks on a
PC.  The only concrete solution, offered in about half the replies, wsas to
get a CopyIIPC Option Board from Central Point Software.  This card in an
auxilliary controller developed to copy copy-protected software, but has
the additional benefit of being able to access non-DOS disks, such as the
Macintosh's.  Unfortunately it seems like it is only possible to read/write
400K and 800K Mac disks, not the 1.44M variety.
