- Hallo!
-
- I hear a lot of talk about downloading and uploading software.
-
- Two questions:
-
- (1) - How does one do this? Please note that I'm not using a 64 for up/down
- loading, I am in fact using a PC.
-
- (2) - Where are the sites that the software is held? FTP sites, yesno?
-
- I presently use FTP upload and download stuff from the PC onto a 3.5" disk
- for my Atari STE (*sorry* (Hey! I'm a 64 man at heart, and always will be!))
- which is easy enough. Can I put stuff on a 5.1/4" disk from PC, and somehow
- get 64 to read the disk?
-
- Or: Could I put the stuff on an ST disk as per usual, and the port the stuff
- from ST via RS-232 into the userport? If so, how?
-
- Thanks in advance for any help given!
