   I did tape it, but I ended up with a poor quality tape.  I would have
   gotten it digitized (total size would be less than 4MB) if my copy was
   better.  If anyone does have a decent copy please digitize it.
   Ironically enough, Macintosh sound format is one of the most widely
   usable.  Player programs are available for MS-DOS (no extra hardware
   needed), Amiga, Sun Sparc, and other systems.  Just be sure to chop it
   into 512KB sized pieces so that small memory systems like MS-DOS boxes
   can handle it.

I taped it as well, but I haven't listened to the tape as yet.  If it's
of reasonable quality, I'll digitize it in SPARC (what else? :-) audio
format and put it on ???one of the FSF machines??? ???prep???.  If some
FSF person has a suggestion of a location, please let me know, otherwise I'll
put it somewhere on FSF land that seems right at the time.
