The date on win.com seems to be the date that it was installed,
which is why the dates were different. Doesn't mean that there is any
difference in the distributions. If someone can tell me what software
is "standard" for doing a checksum (and that runs on a PC), I can post
a checksum of the 3.5" distribution. Perhaps someone else can compare
that to a 5.25" distribution. 

I recall someone else saying that the notebook paste date/time
function posted only the time, well, mine only posts the date. So, if
this person is listening, is your distribution 5.25" or 3.5"?
