I can think of a reason for bns not to bother with file transfer
protocals:  I'd say that a good number of important files are in
the 100 to 200k range, and bns whole memory is only 190k. Now
unless maybe the disk drive can handle 1.4 meg disks, or can
interface to an hd, I don't see that it makes much sense.

But then, I'm a spoiled pc user. So, enlighten me <grin>.
