You won't need a 3.5" drive to create disk images with an AppleII. All
that you need is a program called DSK2FILE, a simple ProDos program.
You can grab this program from ftp.uni-kl.de and the most other
major FTP sites. Should need only two 5.25" drives, one for the source
disk and one for the target file which you can then send to that
other computer.
