- I don't know if you want to try this, but I've got it on my BBS as a
- "free" download. No, the BBS doesn't call back and deliver it.. :-) It
- means that a person with one minute of time left online can say "D
- BOOT97P1.ZIP" and get the file. It's available to first time callers,
- as well. The file is about 110k (or so).
