And happily not vice-versa.
My Macintosh, or at least my Power Mac, if and when it's working, can
read my PC disks, though the process is far from being as transparent as
it should be. The major culprit in this sorry state of affairs is Hebrew,
but it has numerous other accomplices. I invested a great deal of time,
and a sizable sum of money, on trying to get my Mac to be able to read
PC-prepared Hebrew, and on trying to convert Hebrew documents on the Mac
to something decipherable on the PC. I don't know where things stand on
that account today, because long ago I broke ranks and abandoned the Mac
as my main computer. Continuing to use it might have been fun, but I would
have found myself devoting more time to converting documents from one format
to another than to actually writing or preparing something.
