hello,

Is it possible to convert a mackintosh drive to work with an amiga?

The reason I ask is that my local dealer has a 3rd party mack drive
for sale as is.  It is only $45, and if i could cheaply modify it,
that would be tremendous!

I know that I will have to work with the drive speed problem
regardless, but I would assume that if amigas can read mac disks at
least toward the center where the speeds are compatable, the drives
should be modifiable.

					thanks in advance,
