n the Mac SE Owner's Guide (p. 33) it strongly implies that a 1.4 MB disk
formated on a FDHD drive will be compatable with the same MFM format of IBM
formating. I tried it both ways, in each case the respective machines spit the
offending disks out before any operations were attempted. 

Obviously I'm missing something. What?

(And yes, I am comming from the IBM world but I'm now in a 50/50 shop and am 
building a network to happly include everyone.)

THanks for the help,
