There is a company in the UK called "York Electronics Research" which
produces an IBM PC card to allow the IBM to access C64 peripherals.  It
doesn't allow access the other way around though, like you can't access
your IBM PC from the C64.  You can use your commodore printer on your
IBM though and you can read/write Commodore disks in a 1541/1571 disk 
drive

Their phone number is 44 904 610722, I'm afraid I don't have their
address at present but can find it if you want.  The cost of the card
and software is about 30 pounds sterling if I remember.
