ScuzzBlog: Diaries December 2019 Entry 26th December 2019: Post 03: Amiga - CrossDOS. Amiga - CrossDOS. There were very special days using the Amiga when I tripped across something that just blew my mind. Finding CrossDOS was one such event. Man was I so excited when I found this software. The problem with the Amiga was the disk storage. It was so expensive. I was buying so many floppy disks. I had moved onto the HD drive and the bigger capacity, but still I was unable to store all my animations. And then I discovered CrossDOS. I was gifted a couple of old junk PCs from work and they had ample storage on their drives. But the computers could not read the Amiga disks. That was until I discovered CrossDOS. For not only could copy files to a PC formatted disk but I could save direct to PC disks and so I had a universal floppy disk system and I could now capture files from the internet and use them on the Amiga. CrossDOS was so useful with the ZIP disks and when used with FAT I could save the long file names on the PC. It was just magic. For the first time the PC and Amiga worked in perfect harmony without any barriers. In time I installed AmiPC and linked the two machines. It all stemmed from CrossDOS. There really was very little the Amiga couldn't do in truth. Amiga - CrossDOS.
