   Creating TRS80 disks from images

   I don't know about for others, but this is a major stumbling block for   
   me now that I have started playing with my TRS80's again.  I know there   
   are PC's that can read/write TRS80 format disks, but they are getting   
   rarer all the time.  Heck, just finding a PC with a floppy controller   
   is getting hard.  So, here's my real question.  Is it possible for a   
   Tandy Color Computer to read/write TRS80 disks?  Has anyone written   
   software to do this?  I would think that with something as powerful   
   as OS/9 if the hardware was capable the software would not be that   
   difficult.  Comments?
