Hi,
I'm debating between buying a MacIIsi or an Amiga 3000.  What the Amiga 3000
lacks in commercial software, it makes up for with public domain software.
In fact, there's several FTP sites which, if I understand correctly, lots of
quality public domain software can be downloaded.  I'm curious if there is
such a public domain software base available for the Mac's.  And, if so,
are there similar FTP sites for the Macs as there is for the Amigas?  Any 
information will be greatly appreciated.  
Thanks in advance,
Scott Kell (scott@ei.ecn.purdue.edu)
