- I have a utility which came on a shareware disk I purchased titled PC-AT
- Utilities called slow.com and noslow.com(speeds the computer back up). It's
- distributed by a company called Shareware Source which is a San Jose, California
- company. If you cant find one on any of the sites let me know and I will zip
- it up and ftup it up to one of the sites.
