sio2pc - like device for 68k Macs?

[+BoatofCar]

I'd love to get my Mac Plus running again. Is there a device that can interface with the port on the back so I can load programs to it from the PC, a la the sio2pc for Atari 8 bits?

I only found this: http://www.applefool.com/se30/ using a serial cable or by hooking the mac to a network.

 

I use a usb floppy drive hooked to my macbook to transfer files to my mac se. Not fast but it works.

Yeah, the SE can read 1.44mb disks, making life easier for everything. I may need to invest in one!

some SE's read 1.44mb disks specifically the SEHD or the much upgraded SE/30 a normal SE wont (I have one) and to upgrade it requires the apple superdrive and a rom upgrade, so keep in mind its not easy

 

If your plus has a hard disk you can use a terminal program and a null modem cable to get stuff in and out of it, that is what I mostly do, but its slow

Do you have a SCSI Zip drive?

 

I use a USB Zip drive on new Mac, and a SCSI on the plus to transfer files.

 

Some of the power PC macs make great go between machines and can be had very cheap too. They will still write to 800k disks for your plus as we'll.
