Hello there.

I am new to the pc-compatible world, having spent most of my computing life
on Macs.  But next year I become sys admin to a Novell network (mixed PCs and
Macs) and I need to start collecting miscellaneous software - which is where
you all come in.

The only micro that has access to the net is a Mac, through a modem.

My question is, how do I go about getting these files, and ones in archive
sites (ftp) onto a pc disk.  I know nothing of zip, arc, et al., other than
their names.

Please help.  email would be best....
