Oh well...I'm just careful to use IBM formatted disks when >>transfer is important. I *had* a PCT, but I got sick of the lousy CGA graphics it had. I have a //gs, and the least they could have done was use something like the Tandy 16-color version of CGA. I mean, sheesh. It did work like a charm while I had it, though. If they (AE) implement an AT Transporter with at least EGA color, I'd be glad to go out and get one. But the current PCT is so minimal as to be well-nigh useless to me, since the PC-specific programs I'd like to use (ie Ultima VI, SigmaPlot, etc) are silly on VGA. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- TWB5024@venus.tamu.edu Warlock BOTTING@tamcomp twb5024@tamsumma Tye Botting -----------------------------------------------------------------------
