There is a shareware program called Transmac. Search for yahoo on it, and
it will show up. I use it for the same thing, it's great. Or. You can
email it to your mac as well, I did that for a while.
you will have to use 720k floppies I think, easy enough to tape over the HD
hole and format it 720. If you need to transfer and a 720 wont do it, I
have enough hardware to get it done, since I use I IIfx as an appletalk
gateway over TCPIP.
