Hi, I would've assumed Microsoft would have finally caught up with Apple in allowing you to put Mac disks into your computer to put files on. Do I need to buy an emulator for this?

So, Apple has a format that is incompatible with the OS that runs 99% of the installed floppy drives in the world, and Microsoft should do something about it?
What's wrong with that picture?

Try Aladdin Expander. It will unzip MAC zips. You still won't be able to read a MAC format file though. Only the standard file types that Microsoft recognizes (txt, html et al). I've seen and used AppleWin on a Win98 system. Not sure if it works in XP.
