Hmmmmm..... I wonder if a Messy-DOS machine with one of those CopyII-PC boards and a 3.5" drive would work. The manual claims it can copy Mac & Amiga disks. Anyone have access to one for testing? -- Dan "Sneakers" Schein {pyramid|rutgers|uunet}!cbmvax!heimat!sneakers Sneakers Computing 2455 McKinley Ave. Of course heimat is an Amiga.

I happen to own a Central Software Deluxe Option board which claims to be
able to copy *virtually* any disk, include IBM, Apple MAC, Atari and even
Amiga. To be honest - I can't copy everything *sigh*, and in fact some
Amiga copy protection schemes do wonders to the system (the disk drive gets
stuck in an infinite loop on the protected block :-( ... ) So, you have
to check what scheme is used before you can assume it can copy it. Oh well.
I guess what I need is Project_D ... anybody have any info on it that makes
it better than Raw Copy (and how to get Project_D program - much appreciated)
Caio!
