     Cool! They seem to work 'as advertised'. I downloaded everything,
NULL-modemmed it to the GS, and used ShrinkIt to unshrink a couple of
the .sdk files (Space II and Trader) to 5.25" diskette. They started up
without a hitch and looked fine on our II+.

     Thanks for your work on getting these products reclassified and
making them available as .dsk _and_ .sdk files.
