Don't want any in shrunk form!!!!!!!!!
There's not enough GS stuff out there to warrant
compressing, and it just makes it a _pain_ to
casually access. I may want to access it on a
PowerPC to use with a IIgs emulator.  :)

Maybe some in .DSK images (dos33) for emulator use,
but not GS.

Recently picked up a CD containing msdos programming
tools ____and code____. Code is code, right? Wanted
to "reuse" some for my gs projects.

CDs hold >600mb.
This CD contained 250mb.
Almost all the files were compressed.
Each directory contained ANOTHER directory intended
    for bbs use with all the files compressed AGAIN!
They'd take an ARCed file and ZIP it.
Makes it real hard to extract those files on a gs.
Sheesh...
