Can anybody give me a current status report on: (a) Software that will and will not run with Magic Sac; and (b) Estimated price and availability date for the rumored Data Pacific Macintosh-compatible floppy drive for the ST? Is there any other source for an ST drive that can read/write Mac disks? Any other information on advantages or disadvantages of an ST with Magic Sac would be appreciated. -John Sangster / jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa
