There are several other software packages that allow you to
read and write to CP/M disks on your PC. Some I know of are:

Xeno Copy from Vertex in California. This is copy protected, a pain
to use and very expensive for what it is.

Crossdata from Award Software, Los Gatos CA 408 395 2773 - this has 28
formats, costs $99.

Media Master from MDG and Associates, Moorpark CA 805 529 5073, costs
$39.95 + $2.50 S/H, has 70 formats - a good deal.

Supercross from Powersoft in Dallas, this is different because unlike
the others it runs on the TRS-80 Model 1,3 or 4. It lets you do things
the others will not - copy between any two disks from a TRS-80, CP/M or
MS-DOS machine. It includes single and double density formats, note
that the PC cannot read single density disks as IBM thoughtfully left
the density control out when they designed the hardware. This one costs
$99.95 from Powersoft (214) 484-2976. I must say this one is great -
since I am the author !.
