I may have caused more confusion than clarification with my original post.
(Apple 3.5 drives can read IBM 720k IBM formats). This is true only when
connected to the PC transporter. Apparently the controllers are what causes
the imcopatiblities. The reason I was impressed was that I expected to need an
IBM external drive, but instead was able to use my second drive t osave some
money.
You do not need an HDFD and a Mac, you just need a PCT and 3.5 drive. I think
this is the more cost effective method. And the more fun.  :-)
