I'd like to be able to read Macintosh formatted disks. Does anyone
know of PD or non-PD software for the Amiga to do this using one
of the amiga's 3 1/2" drives? The next question is: is this possible without
a hardware addon? I'm aware the apple drives are able to change speeds, but 
the amiga can also change its parameters a bit (MFM, 2usec/4usec etc) and
has some(but how much) tolerance for different speed data rates.(Some copy
protections write using a higher speed and thus preventing you from making
copies with your drive. But they're still readable).

Thanks.
