There are certain commerical programs, such as CONVERT or Media Master,
that will read a DEC Rainbow disk on an IBM PC/XT/AT. These programs will
also write the DEC Rainbow format (among 30+ other foramts).

Doesn't the Rainbow also run MS-DOS? (I seem to  remember hearing that) If
yes, then why not get the Rainbow to write a double density disk for the
PC (I think Rainbow uses quad-density).

Hope this helps.
