Hi.  Could someone please provide details as to the format of Mac disks.
I would like to be able to transfer files from both an IBM and Atari system
that use 3 inch disks to a mac.  I know that the rotation speed is varied
for different tracks but have no details.  Does anyone have a conversion
program written already?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance...
