Solutions in Illinois, is very much NOT shareware (although some other program MAY be). Despite that, it is absolutely the best program in the genre,allowing the user to not only read/write/format some 200 (not 60) CP/M disk formats, but to put the actual CP/M disk in the PC and work off of it as though it were a PC disk. The company also markets a board to read Apple & Northstar disks, and a third board that can run 8" and 3-1/2" and AT disks off of an XT (also an AT). They make good equipment, and have good support. Their phone number is (815) 756-3411. The program generally sells for around $50 (the boards around $150).
