  I have yet to find info on how to access ftp sites or on how to find pd
software. I tried the FTP command but kept getting UNKNOWN HOST errors.

  Second, I would like to know how to access file requestors or other file
commands through the Libraries, for use in BASIC. I would like to know if
a BASIC compiler exiests that supports the disk drives (other than the DIR
command).

  Third, does anyone out there represent MAST (of Nevada) or Amiga World? I
need some technical info that all other sources can't provide. I submitted
a program to AmigaWorld and would like to know if they got it yet.

  Fourth, what does it mean when a SCSI device can handle 8 hard drives? Do
they each have to have their own casings or can one case hold more than one
drive (I heard the XETEC can hold more than one drive). I have a 500, and
have only used up the internal expansion slot so far. I heard that some
drives access the expansion bus and some use the parallel port (like Tiny 
Tiger).
