|  Speaking of System 7, is ftp.apple.com down?  Or is it just being
|besieged by 10000 lusting-for-System-7 ftpers?
|  I ftped a lot of the System 7 source code from here up until 1 a.m.
|last night, but when I try to ftp there this morning, I repeatedly get
|"Connection timed out".

Geez, I knew they were gonna be pleasant about distribution, but
*Source code*? Boy, I'd better check this out.,...

According to someone else, apple.apple.com was getting 5-10 FTP's a
*MINUTE* looking for the elusive 7.0.

(Note: it ain't there, see ftp.apple.com instead. Several of us use
apple.apple.com for "work purposes" so please don't pig our machine
too much, OK?)
