A little bit later than planned, I actually tried today the suggested 
solution of simply putting the 5.3.1 Apple CD driver in the 
extensions folder of OS 7.5.3.
And it works !
So then I immediately created some HFS CD-ROMS with the free trial 
version of TransMac. These CD-ROMS contain all my OMI & EMU & other 
Banks.
Wow ! Now I have instant access to +1500 banks directly from my 
Macintosh Classic (the internal 40 MB Hard drive was not really an 
option...)
(OK, I planned to have the same feature directly from my PC but as 
you know I'm still struggling with communication line stability 
between my PC and the EII, so I will not throw away yet my Mac for 
the coming months...years...centuries :-)

Thanks guys !!
