Re: Shrink Files

["John Zielke" <jzielke@nospam.qquest.com>]

Come to think of it, I have a 1 gig jaz sitting here after my upgrade to a 2
gig on my PC.  I should put my 1 gig on my mac and that way I can transfer a
large amount of data.  I know the Mac reads PC disks, but should I try what
you mentioned with TransMac?  I assume TransMac does the resource forking
correctly.  Will the mac translate it correctly when it reads the PC disk?

Thanks for the help!
