 Correction--
FTP DOES NOT require TCP- I do it EVERY DAY with my GS. You CAN ftp with
just a shell account. Then you simply download the file using
Z-modem/Kermit. (which Spetrum, though not necessarily SIS, does)
Remember that SIS uses a Shell account- don't confuse the way things are
done on a shell account with the way things are done on Netscape or IE.
But you are right- it is still a good buy.
