Re: Archiving Apple ][e discs

["John Van Winkle" <appleiieman@charter.net>]

The program called ADT for Windows is the way to go for what you are wanting
to do if you have a PC.  You need a super serial card in your Apple and set
up for communicating with your PC and a modem cable 9 pin to 25 pin cable.
The program will tell you howe to set it up.  It is really easy.  After
that, you can save it to a CD.  Don't think it will copy copy protected
stuff. I have used it for the last 6months or so to make floppies for the
Apple.  It works great.  If you need some help, I will be gald to help you
through the process.  Here is where you can get the program:
