- Mac-In-DOS is a clumsy, ugly program which costs about $129 retail and can
- only format Mac-format disks (not all media, just floppies, I think) and
- copy files. They use a slightly more convenient, non-standard method for
- storing resource and finder data, but ARDI are working on a better method, I
- think (they're captive to a horrendous Apple standard)(the "horrendous" was
- to apply only to "standard", not "Apple" as well, which is far worse a
- corporate disaster than "horrendous" could hope to capture). It does NO
- software emulation AT ALL. In fact, Executor is even better at copying
- files for me, because it understands Win95 filenames and Mac-In-DOS, last I
- checked, does not.
