You can get a board for the Mac (Probably not all versions) that
has an 80 something processor on it, and allows you to run DOS
programs directly. A friend of mine with a Mac II has such a board,
but it is apparently extremely slow, and expensive compared with
purchasing a low end PC box separately, then using a Superdrive to
transfer files between the two machines.
