I recently bought a Mac 30/SE for home use, although all my expertise is
on MS-DOS machines.  I have Internet access at work using my DOS machine,
but not from home and the Mac.

Is there any way to download Mac executables onto the DOS machine and then
hand carry them to the Mac at home?  The SE/30 has an internal "super-
floppy" which can read DOS-formatted 3-1/4" floppies.  The only problem is
that it tries to pull the files from the DOS disk into the Mac as
documents.  Remember...I'm a real green novice in things Mac-like.  Any
suggestions?
