I agree, it does sound like one. My main desire is to get DECB disk images
onto my CoCo, using my Mac. If have to use NitrOS-9 to do that, that's
fine. :)

Could it do that? I've got a serial cable already, using an RS-232 pak,
could DriveWire use that? The FAQ doesn't really mention it, nor does the
manual describe how to use it on a Mac. I imagine the software isn't too
different, though.

Also, I'd be booting from floppy, since I don't feel like hacking my
machine's ROM. :)

Thanks,
James
