Apple II viruses were made extinct by the vigilence of
Apple II BBS owners.

You can do the reverse of Apple II floppy on PC much
easier.  ///SHH Systeme (look for the company on the
web) sells a floppy disk drive controller for the Apple II
that will take your PC 5.25" drives (320k or 1.2MB) and
PC 3.5" drives (720k, 1.44MB, or 2.88MB).  These cards
are still being made.  Read and write MS-DOS disks on
an Apple II.  Use 1.44MB drives to store Apple II data.
Use cheap PC drives on an Apple II!
