BTW, wasn't CrossDos a thirt party component?
;-) As I recall, it was.  Certainly version 7 is commercial software.  As for the rest, as I understand it, the ability to read/write Amiga formatted floppies has to do with the controller.  That's why UAE cannot read Amiga disks on a PC.

There is an after-market controller which is supposed to be able to read Amiga floppies, and potentially (with the right drivers) any disk format in existence.  This is called the Catweasel.  An Internet search should be able to turn up dealers.
