Bob,
  Thanks for the info. I had asked my roomate (an Apple owner from 1980 and a
senior EE) and my friend/software source (Mac owner since its release and an
employee at the University's micro support center) about it, and what I posted
was based on that. However, knowing that they (and I) are fallible, I asked for
people who knew better to followup and clear the air. Thankfully, there are
people like you that can do so in a friendly manner. Sitting on my reader is
some major flames to reply to. I dislike replies like this; I am NOT a
computer expert and did not claim to be one, that is why I asked my question.
  When it comes to the drives, not only are the Apple and Mac drives similar,
but now I hear that IBM is using the same format on their 3.5s, although they
hold 720k, not 800k (MS-DOS?).
  Anymatter, thanks for the info, and if you have someting to point ot on the
Mac, let me know.
  BTW, I received this letter on 11/12/86, yet it shows a mail date of 10/28.
I thought the reason we used Email was because it was faster :-) (seriously,
is there a reason it took that long?)
