- Chris leapt onto comp.sys.amiga.hardware and mumbled something about Re:

- I use PC2Amiga, it's a filesystem which allows you to address your PC by
- drive names, i.e. PC:c/ is the c: drive of the PC and so on. It's on Aminet,
- but I can't remember the name of the archive. I can say that it works fine
- on my A1200/486DX266 laptop, comes with a TSR for the PC and the mountlist
- for the Ami, and I can always get an error-less 57kbps on a home-made wire,
- and have gotten 115kbps a couple of times. And it's DOS only for the pc,
- which makes it a billion times better :)
