I think that those "image" files are disk images used by Apple's DiskCopy program. Basically, if you can get these images down to a Mac (hard drive?) and un-binhex them (as necessary), then the resulting "image" files can be read by DiskCopy to save on a 800K floppy. I think DiskCopy is also there on apple.com, but if it's not, check on sumex-aim.stanford.edu. Erik A.

Thanks for all the replies to my question about what the "image" files are in apple.com. That'll teach me to read the "readme" files in the future. :-) Now the problem is downloading the stuff via 2400 baud modem. Snail-city. Snore.
