$So; how do *you* get stuff onto your Amiga?

Well I know you used to need everyone's signature including the
Queen's in order to use a modem in England, but why can't you just
log in with your Amiga from home, and download that way?  The
de-archiving programs should be readily available.  My Amiga is
connected as a terminal at work (9600 baud) and when I'm at
home I just use a Hayes at 1200 (slower, but still workable).

	Good luck,
	Paul.
