 Q: I just got dvi2st (PD dvi previewer on the mono ST). From the readme file,
    I gather that I can preview on the ST a remote dvi file (located on a 
    VAX/UNIX). Can someone tell me how to do that?  I managed to preview
    the given dvi file if the file and the fonts are on the ST, but how can
    I preview a remote file without downloading it?  I think the server.c
    file has something to do with this?  Help !!

 I ordered the SUPRA 20Meg HardDrive in mid-late Jan from Software Discounters
 of America, and finally received one last week (there was a nation-wide
 back-order). Everything on the drive appears to work fine, except it gives
 an error when I tried a low-level format.  I called SUPRA, and they advised
 me to send it back. Send it back I did last Friday. And guess what? Six
 and a half days later, I received a replacement from SUPRA.  And that's
 East Coast -> West Coast -> East Coast. I'm impressed by the turnaround time.
 
 Does anyone know why the SUPRA drive spins down whenever I run the PARKING
 program?  All other computers I've seen park the drive head without spinning
 down?   Are there any auto-parking programs for the SUPRA 20Meg?  What's the
 norm for parking on the SUPRA 20 Meg ?

 Many Thanks in advance.

 (my fortune cookie prediction:  Atari will not push ABAQ, but will push the
  M68030/Unix machine instead. )
