	There is a program called Magic Shadow that can be used to send non
TOS format disks over the net and recreate them at the far end. It could be
used for the Union demo above or for the netter looking for the CPM emulator
system disk or even for Spectre/Magic Sac/Aladin disks, but not I think for
real mac disks. It's PD and available from several mail servers.
