With the help of Mr. Nolan, we've got a bunch of new files on the archive. I figure I'll do this once a month, since I get a little less traffic than the mac side of our archive, but here's the list of files added to the archive in the past month. Most of them I actually did myself, but a healthy portion of them were done by the aforementioned Mr. Nolan. (I've always wanted to use that work in a sentence.) Our site is mirrored on wuarchive, and that is, in fact, a much better place to get the files. They are in: wuarchive.wustl.edu:mirrors/archive.umich.edu/msdos Enjoy... ------------------------------------------------------- (this is the file msdos/info/newfiles.txt.93feb08) msdos/taxes/amtax92.zip 220029 bytes by ?
