Also, could somone send me a copy of mcvert in a form that is usable, or post
the system disk in some other usable form (if this isn't illegal).  I cannot
UUDECODE..  and, no, I don't have the correct software to run the shell program
so don't send it to me, I need the bootable UUDECODE, that no one seems to
be able to get a clean copy of.

Anyone???

Please help!
