A few weeks ago, I posted the following message:

>I have available the entire contents of the Zenith Data Systems Bulletin
>Board System.  The ZDS BBS has a wealth of information not only specific to
>users of ZDS products, but also for users of MS-DOS and applications in 
>general.  There is a lot of information on both software and hardware topics
>such as compatibility, performance, and specific operational problems.  There 
>is a large history of questions and answers; many of the answers are very 
>detailed and often provide code patches and solutions.

>The information in the ZDS BBS is freely available: when you log in, you are
>not even asked to provide a name or password. The reason I am offering the 
>contents of the BBS is that it is very large and therefore requires a 
>substantial amount of download time.

>I have the contents of the BBS available in uuencoded, ARCed form.  In this
>form, the BBS comprises about 385K.  I have split this 385K into 6 files,
>none of which is greater than 64K.

>If anyone is interested in receiving this, please send mail.

Since then, I have received a great many requests for the information.
In most cases, I was able to successfully mail the requested info.  However,
I know that in some cases my mail did not get thru at all.  Especially since
Memorial Day weekend, e-mail has been VERY unreliable for me (tuning up during
a 3-day weekend again, system managers?)

So, if there is anyone out there who mailed a request to me for this
information and has received no response from me, please request again.
