The nice folks at Sequential Systems who maintain a web presense
at www.sequential.com sell a product called CrossWorks.  This is
a software and hardware combination.  The software translates AW
documents, with all formatting intact, into standard PC formats like
MS Works.  The hardware is a special cable that connects the PC
and the Apple and allows transfer at 19200 baud.
