Hello: I tried to mail to you, but it bounced.  I am desperately in need of
this release of NOS (NET) for the Amiga.  I tried to ftp to the above   
mentioned site, but had no luck (I am new at this ftp stuff).  Is there
anyway I can get this from you, by dialing you direct via normal telephone
lines or something.  If so, please follow up to this article or mail me
(it may bounce) indicating how I can get together with you to obtain 
this program.  Thanks a lot, and look forward to hearing you.

I heard this is a great product,  I hear also that the guy who designed it
is the same guy that owns Black Belt systems, the same guy that came up
with the HAM-E adapter (not yet available).  I look forward to purchasing
one of these, the AVT that is, and if you have any experience with this
product let us know how it works in the real world.  Thanks again...
