But.... when you download something (with your PC or Mac), you can unzip it
right away and put it on a DD disc. When I download a program or something
and I see that it is not a ZIP file, I just throw it away because of all
those stupid ARJ-LZH, etc. extensions. Just use ZIP. It's a standard. Why
unpack it on your MSX when you have a PC
