Hey Everyone,

I am new to this retro computing hobby and I have been learning a lot of things for a while an recently I discovered that you can transfer files from pretty much any modern system to your vintage mac on usb through a serial port converter using Kermit, a serial file transfer.

I dont know if people knew about this (most likely you did already) but I found it quite useful after my floppy drive decided to not read floppys any more (and luckily I had already kermit installed).

Anyways; I created a short video on how to use the tool, it has worked pretty well for me to install the image writer drivers :)
