[comp.sys.ibm.pc] DOS <-> CP/M

I'm looking for this too -- but a little different.  I need to
transfer files back and forth between a PC and an Osbourne.  I tried
the stuff at Simtel20, and it didn't seem to work.  Any pointers?

A couple of years ago I bought a program called Media Master Plus
that let me read Osborne disks on my Wyse AT. As I recall, it cost
about $50.00. It seems to work quite well for reading disks, but I
did have some problems trying to format Osborne single-sided 180K
disk on my 1.2M drive (but maybe that's to be expected). The address
in the documentation is:
Intersecting Concepts
80 Long Ct. Suite 1A
Thousand Oaks, CA 91360
(805) 373-3900
You might also want to try the original Osborne Users Group (FOG).
They might be able to point you to some PD file transfer programs.
Their address is:
FOG
P. O. Box 3474
Daly City, CA 94015-0474
I don't see any office phone number in their magazine.  They have a
BBS number (in Daly City, CA), which is 415-755-2030. You have to be
a member to download software, but you may be able to leave a
message without joining.
