[comp.sys.mac] mac.binaries-->MSDOS---->Mac II possible?

Hello all
I have an MSDOS machine at home which I use to call PORTAL and gain access
to USENET. I have a MAC II at work (wouuld like to have one at home too! any
one want to sell me theirs?) and was wondering if I can just d/l the info
from PORTAL and put it on the mac. I do have an MSDOS 3 1/2 inch floppy
at work so I could convert it to the right isk size. I am just worried about
the MS-DOS formatting of the disks. Any Ideas?

Talk your company into buying a Mac IIx for use at work.  With the super
drive, you can read the 3 1/2" DOS diskettes.  Then you take the Mac II
home and solve both problems at once :-).
