I haven't had any problems moving files back and forth between my PC
clone (Kaypro 2000 portable) and the ST. This is using 720K formatted
3.5 inch disks. The ST can read and write to disks formatted on the
PC with no probs, although you need a special PD formatter program
that has been around for a while now if you want the PC to be able to
read disks formatted on the ST (PC controllers are a bit pickier.)
