Apple II gs Disk help needed

We received a letter (on real paper, envelope and all) here at Virginia Tech yesterday from an elderly couple who need some help converting from old 5.25" floppies to somewhat less old 3.5" floppies. The letter was address to the "Computer Department" but for some strange reason it ended up in my cube. Other than plugging a few cables into the new G-5 Cluster, I have no experience at all with Apple stuff. If any one on the list can help these folks out, I'm sure they would appreciate it. Here is the text of the letter: -----------------------------------cut------------------------------------ 213 Heady Avenue Louisville, Ky 40207 10 November 2003 To the Computer Department Virginia Polytechnic Institute Blacksburg, VA Dear Computer Genius(es), Can you help us? This is a serious request. We have an old Apple II c or gs word processor (old = 1985).(We are also old, 65 & 70.) We have important data on about 30 5.25" full floppy disks from it, which we are trying to "CONVERT" to the newer 3.5 disks. It would take years to retype it all. We need all kinds of "exact" help - people have been "trying" to help us and we can't get anywhere, i.e., we have an antique and expensive Apple II 3.5 disk drive bought from a reseller. Now we are having trouble finding the old single sided 800 KB 3.5 disks we believe it takes. IF we find those disks, we need to know the process for transferring the data. IF THERE IS ANYONE IN THE COMPUTER DEPARTMENT WHO REMEMBERS HOW TO DO THIS ANCIENT TECHNOLOGY - and where we can by the SS 800 KB disks - and could they please help us with simple step instructions? Our e-mail can be used to send instructions (simple, please) dkelly(a)worldnet.att.net We would be very gratefully if anyone can help. Thanks for reading. Sincerely, (s) Dave and Wanda Kelly Dave and Wanda Kelly ---------------------------------cut------------------------------------- So, it looks like they need a source of disks and some instructions on how to copy the files. If any one can help them out please send them email direct to the address in the letter.
