Sorry Dan, but it IS possible to read Amiga format disks on the PC. Some
time ago someone wrote a shareware program to run Amiga text-only graphics
on the PC. It was able to read Amiga disks. I've never done it myself, but
on the other hand, I stuck DOS type disk drives in my Amiga, and they
worked fine, so the drives themselves are compatible (unlike MAC-PC, 
which requires additional hardware on the part of the PC). Unfortunatelyu
I no longer have this software, nor do I remember the name of it.
