Re: .DSK file -> Floppy Disk ?
Why don't you use the Win98 laptop to upload the DSK files to your shell
account, then download using the IIe and use DSK2FILE or ASIMOV to convert
back to disks.
Don't forget that (at least with DSK2FILE; I'm not familiar with ASIMOV)
the disk must be formatted first. Use RAM disks to speed things up.
