I have, and love my IIgs and II fleet, however I grow tired of programming
in basic for them. I am an avid PC user, and I have never used a Mac before
and want to transfer files to my IIgs. I hear some Macs will recognize PC
disks, and maybe I can use a mac as a go between (a local store is selling
power mac 6100s for $49). Is it wise to use this method, or is there a
better way of transferring files from my PC to my IIgs?


A Power Mac running OS7.5 or 7.6 works really well for that.
Another option worth considering is a SuperDrive card and a 1.44mb

drive. There was a posting by someone in c.s.a.marketplace that had anumber of them. Then you could read PC floppies with your IIgs
