Is there a device that would allow _any_ disk,
independently of
format, including Apple ][ disks, to be read?
You can look at
http://members.tripod.com/~apd2/catweasl.htm for an ISA card
that'll (allegedly) read several MFM and GCR formats, including Commodore,
Amiga, FAT, Atari, Macintosh, and Apple //.
I haven't ever used one, so I can't comment on its reliability, but it might
be worth investigating.
