You will not be able to convince the Mac to write an MSDOS format disk
- but you can convince the MSDOS machine (at least a true PC Clone) to
read a Mac disk -

But don't bother - there are at least 3 ads in this month's PC
magazine for programs which read Mac disks on PC's.  Some appear to
need a board to help out -
