Re: Disk Image to cassette tape

[Sean Burnett <sean.burnett@home.com>]

Thanks for the link!  Just for my own perverse interests, I'm in 
the middle of writing a .wav->binary file app.  The serial/game
port implementation will definitely help with the disk image part of
it.

In the end, it should be quite easy to hook a patch cable from the
cassette out/in to the PC sound card to send data and software to and
from the Apple (e.g. use the PC as a big, expensive tape recorder
that can convert its sound files into disk images).  

I'll post it when I'm done.  Something to keep me out of the beer
parlors.

Thanks!
