I recently bought the old (ancient?) CP/M cartrige for the C-64 for an
incredibly cheap price... Now that I finnaly have one... What can I use it
for other than a doorstop?

When I bought my '64, one of the main claims was "Access to over 15,000 CP/M
programs!"

Well, where are they???  How can I get CP/M applications on a disk readable
by the 1541 disk drive?  It seems that the version 2.2 of CP/M that was pfor the '64 did not include support for the modem!!!  So I can't download
software!  The really strange thing is... In the CP/M guide, there are a few
(poorly documented!) programs to type in that includesome kind of RECIEVE
and SEND programs... but how to use them, I have no idea!!!

If there is anyone out there that might be able to shed a little light on
this rather dismal subject, please show me the light!!!!
