Does there exist a CD-ROM drive that may be alternately attached to a Mac and a PC? I would expect I would need to purchase two sets of driver software. It is not necessary that it can read disks foreign to the machine it is connected to (mac cd's on a pc, or vice versa). My company has both PC's and Macs, and we want a CD, but we do not want to spend the cash two buy two of them. It would work out to set up a single file server that could serve the CD's to the appropriate machine. Send responses to escher@apple.com, and I will post a summary. Thanks! -- Michael D.

The Voyager CD from Meridian Data Systems uses the High Sierra format. If
you install Foreign File Access with the High Sierra driver on the Mac
side and have a PC running High Sierra, they both should be able to share
the CD-ROM over a network.
