*****Yes, I have seen the same problem.  I downloaded the file 3 times to
*****3 different disks and it occurred on each.  I am using System 3.1.1 and
*****finder 5.2 even!!!  For those of you who haven't seen it yet, the RR8.0
*****documentation file #2, ALWAYS causes MacWrite to display an I/O ERROR
alert while reading the file using a new system and 800K drive (HFS format)
*****Really strange!!!!!!!!
