Sooner or later, most people who own an S-100 system need to transfer a file to or from a DOS or Windows (or Macintosh or whatever) computer. A Google search of comp.os.cpm "groups" will find a discussion of this very topic that last occurred in early 2003. It's an old topic. Most people who need to establish serial file transfers to or from a CP/M system (or N* DOS system) of ANY sort end up doing something like this: get a SIMPLE file transfer program onto their CP/M system.

IOMega ZIP drives and ZIP disks may offer you a way to move megabyte-sized files from old Macs to new Macs, or from your Mac to a Windows/Pentium PC. Check my Web page for Mac hard drives, the ZIP drive section via this link for the ZIP drives I offer. I have drives for old Mac internal or external use, and for Windows systems too. For a bit more discussion, check the discussion above on recovering files from drives.

In brief, Windows supports many of the Apple "Postscript" laser printers; check the Windows' printer setup for a list of printers, then look for the "Apple" printers, for specific models. Non-Postscript printers include all of the Apple inkjet printers (all Stylewriters), and some of the oldest laser printers. Regarding impact or dot-matrix printers, you can with effort hook an Imagewriter or Imagewriter II to your Windows system via the SERIAL port; select the C.

Mac users have the ability to save to and remotely access Windows Home Server. The Windows Home Server Console and pre-configured PC automatic backups works on Windows Vista and Windows XP.

For most classes, no. However, if you are taking a Computer Science course that requires a specific operating system, such as Windows, you can't use a Mac. Check with the instructor of the course if you are unsure. Also, at this time, most of the proprietary course content used in the Math 55 and 65 online courses cannot be accessed on a Mac.

The University uses Windows computers in most departments, so we generally recommend Windows systems. If you have used Apple Macs and like them you might want to stay with Macs. For more advice see Advice for owners of Apple Mac computers.

PLEASE READ THIS PARAGRAPH TWICE. NO USB external floppy drive will support Apple 400K or 800K diskettes. Period. Also, there are NO EXTERNAL SCSI-BASED floppy drives to speak of, today. Period. And Apple's older external floppy drives for 400K, 800K and 1.4Mb are intended for use ONLY with Apple Macs which already have an INTERNAL floppy drive. Period. Mac 400K and 800K diskettes are written in a unique fashion, no standard IBM-type floppy disk controller card in a PC can read them.

No. They each take distinct approaches to finding SSNs. The Windows version is considerably more sophisticated in its search strategy and benefits from a much longer development cycle. The Mac version, nevertheless, is surprisingly successful with the much simpler approach it takes.

Although you have cross compatibility between Macintosh and Windows versions of Sequencher, these are two separate software programs so we can not offer an exchange between the two applications.

They are EPS files, which are cross platform. The individual template files were created on a Windows PC, so if you are using a Mac we recommend you use the stuffed version. Those templates were converted for use on a Mac.

Yep. The two major options for running Windows on a Macintosh system--Parallels and Apple's Boot Camp--both support it. No. Initially, Microsoft imposed some pretty severe restrictions on Windows Vista usage following computer upgrades. But the company backed off after an outcry. Windows Vista licensing is now identical to Windows XP licensing: You can transfer your license to a new or rebuilt PC as often as you like, as long as you uninstall it on your old machine first.

We use both. We have computers that are running Windows 2000, Windows XP, and OSX (and Red Hat Linux too!)

Standard and accelerated dial-up access services are available for both Mac and Windows operating systems.

Everyone's situation is different, so no one computer is best for everyone any more than a particular diet would be. Sometimes a Windows machine is the best choice and sometimes a Macintosh is. Sometimes the answer is a Linux box, a Palm device or no computer at all. I'll be happy to give you my honest best opinion on your situation, but my experience is that Mac users tend to enjoy their computers more, upgrade less often and experience fewer troubles.

Yes. Tailored Interiors is powered by 4D server technology. One of the distinct advantages of 4D is its ability to run on both Apple and Windows operating systems. Back to top

Yes. Macs use a Gamma of 1.8, while Windows machines use a Gamma of 2.2. It is recommended that Mac users change their Gamma to 2.2 when working on web projects to see how images will appear on a Windows machine. For more in-depth information on Gamma and color theory, see our Color Management section.

The Mac and Windows versions are effectively identical. They have virtually identical features, menus and keyboard shortcuts, use the same file format, and even come on the same CD-ROM with the same manual in the same box, so you can switch between the two whenever you like.
