        The easiest way to do this is to hook up an external 3.5" drive to
the GS and copy the files that way, then convert them with AFE.  The next
easiest way is to use a Mac LC/LC II/LC III/etc with a //e card and copy the
files that way.  I suspect that the 5.25 drive you have on the Mac is a PC
5.25 drive, which will not read ProDOS disks (formats are entirely different).
