To be clear:  7.1 can access X if I first install additional software, but X cannot 
access 7.1 at all.  Is this correct?

This is odd because another friend of mine swears just the opposite - that he cannot 
browse X from 7.1, but X can read shared 7.1 drives just fine.  This would actually be 
preferable in my situation, but I'll take whatever I can get.

Yowsers, quite a bit to do!  How much do I need to transfer via floppy before I can 
retrieve these directly to the SE/30?  If I can just install iCab and fetch the other 
files with that, it would be much better than sneakernet.

I've got SharePoints already, so I should be sitting pretty good.
