This is something I want to be sure of - do you need a modem to
transfer files from a PC to an Apple//? I'm talking about transfers
with Hyperterm on the PC and Proterm on the Apple. I know you don't
with ADT, but not all the files I want to transfer are in .dsk format.
Here's the deal - I have two PC's. The older one has a working modem,
but is considerably slower than the other, and can't do half the stuff
the newer one can. The modem recently died in the newer one. What I'd
like to do is put the modem from the older one into the newer one and
just use the older one to transfer files onto my Apples. They both have
floppy drives, the newer one has a CD burner on it, while the older one
just has a CD ROM. I figure if I need files off the internet, I could
use the newer one to burn them on CD or put them onto floppies, then do
the transfers with the older one. There isn't enough room upstairs to
keep my Apples hooked up to my newer one, and there isn't a phone line
I can use in my basement workshop. So, will my plan work, or not?
