Post by: AmigaFreak on April 13, 2004, 02:19:51 AM

Hello,

Does anyone know if a Mackky (Macintosh) can read Amiga floppies?

Not that I'm aware of. Amiga Floppy Drives are kinda special in the way that they work.

nope i dont think they can. However an Amiga and a Mac can both read PC formatted disks, which is good since Ive just got myself a PB1400. Well its on its way anyway..

right now im having a right hastle getting my emulated mac online, I belive TCP/IP is working correctly but I have no net apps on it to try it out and everything i add wont extract, keeps trying to open them as text files, very frustrating!
