I got a magazine called Exchange that offers a public domain program,
PCWATCH.EXE, on the IBM EBBS at (305)998-3227.  According to the article,
the program "monitors your computer's activity while your computer is 
running -- it lets you 'see' what is happening ... PCWATCH provides an
excellent way for the novice [that's me] to learn how DOS and BIOS functions
are used".

I'd like to get PCWATCH.  According to the article, if I have LOADRAM.EXE (also
on the BBS), I should download PCWATCH.RAM, PCWATCH.DOC, and ST.EXE.

Well, I actually dialed this BBS (it's in Florida) from California.
You can imagine what kind of connection I got.  I found one of the
files but got hung up trying to download it with XMODEM.  So before
I spend lots more of my company's money, I thought I'd ask:

Is the software from this BBS available anywhere in California?  Or
does someone have this software who can get it to me?

Thanks for any help.
