Plymouth, MI, USA -- CrossMAC is an installable Mac file
system for the Amiga. In concert with our product CrossDOS(TM) (The MS-DOS file system), we
complete the link between the Amiga and the other two major
computer platforms. CrossMAC provides the same style of
transparent access to Mac data from the Amiga that CrossDOS
customers have come to enjoy. The development of this product
represents more than two years of code generation and refinement.
