Re: Apple transfer to W95 PC

["Thomas D. Richards" <lakeside@airmail.net>]

I to have some appleworks files that I would like to have on my PC in
text format.(the KJV bible divided up into chapter files).  If you get a
way to do this or a source to have it done, please copy me.  There
is/was a company that sold a board/software (CrossWorks) to read a2
disks and transfer back and forth.  Problem is when I get the disks
converted, I have no further need so can't justify the $ 89.  See for
your self... http://www.sequential.com/cross.html

Thanks,

Tom Richards
