RW.Can somebody help me with communicating from a laptop, 386,
  .to a pc?  I have heard of Laplink?  Is it in the public
  .domain?  Or can someone recommend something else that is?
  .
  .I want to avoid using a modem. 

I assume you want something to do a direct connection, there are a 
number of shareware and commercial packages to do the job.  LapLink,
FastLynx, Brooklyn Bridge are all commercial packages to do what you're
looking for.  I believe that capability is built into the Norton Commander,
and perhaps even Norton Utilities.  There are also several shareware 
packages, XPORT and ZIP (not pkzip) come to mind, I've seen them on
a number of BBS systems.
