I live in Munster (just outside of Ottawa,) Ontario (Canada)... You're
right, I bet if I went out of my way to ask somebody I know to use their mac for
a few mins, they would let me install it onto a drive. One problem with this
approach is most of my friends avoid macs with a passion, so I am left somewhat
stranded, in a rather remote location with no one that I know having a mac
system that they would let me use. Also I would have to take my SCSI tower
(mini-tower packed w/ SCSI drives) over to their house, which is kind of a pain.
I could do this at school if there was any one there that is even remotely
familiar with UNIX, let alone DOS, let alone MacOS, let alone how to use
Macintosh BASIC -- plus ever since I pointed out minor security holes in their
"FoolProof" package (shift-key at startup) to a computer teacher, they have sort
of avoided me, which is surprising since I was pointing it out to them, not
taking advantage of it.
--> The point : I will consider this if I can't get it up on my own..

Please tell me my "HOT"mail account doesn't append a footer add to all of my
messages... That would be really, really gross.
