My boss has a big stack of 5 1/4" floppy disks that were previously
used on an Apple 2e. He wants me to purchase a newer Mac for him (but
one which can be configured to handle a 5 1/4" drive), then by using
an emulator, access the software on these disks then transfer the data/
software onto another computer. I have been reading extensively on
this matter, and although I think I might know how to go about
accessing the software on a newer Mac, I have no idea how to go about
actually transferring or extracting the data onto another computer.
Please help!
