The only inexpensive product that I know of for handling Apple
diskettes under PCDOS/MSDOS is "Matchpoint" from Micro Solutions,
125 South 4th St., Dekalb, IL 60115, phone: (815) 756-3411.

This product is a half-size board that plugs into an IBM-PC and
comes with "Uniform" which is a general purpose disk format conversion
program.  According to the Micro Solutions sales representative,
"Matchpoint" can handle Apple DOS, ProDOS, Apple CP/M, and Northstar
CP/M.  List price is about $200. Contact Micro Solutions for
detailed information.

Xenosoft, Berkeley CA, may come out with a product in the future
to go with their Xenocopy PC software product. Nothing is
available from them at this time.

Vertex Systems, Los Angeles CA, is no longer in business.
Their telephone is disconnected. And I have verified with two
of there competitors that they are doing business with the
general public.
