At this stage I can think of four options to get software to your GS (in
order of expense):

1) Get a serial cable to connect the GS to your Mac and use ADT to transfer
software.

2) Get a DB-25 to Centronics-50 cable to get your hard drive working again.

3) Get an older Mac with a 3.5" drive and/or AppleTalk.

4) Buy an Uthernet card and hook the GS into your LAN.  Heck, if you did
that I'd even send you Marinetti and some TCP/IP applications on 3.5"
disk to get you started.

Telnet, ftp, irc, email, Usenet news -- they're all there once you get
the card.
