A kind friend picked up a floppy disk of the MBSI Index  for me at the
Chicago convention, but there are no instructions nor readme file. How does
this thing work anyway?

 [ Editor's Note:
 [
 [ I believe the diskette was in MS-DOS format and contained a .zip
 [ file which contained 3 ASCII text files.  You'll need to "unzip"
 [ the file, and then open the text file with the text editor of your
 [ choice.  Once you have inspected the files, it should be clear
 [ what to do with them.
 [
 [ I'm hoping that MBSI will eventually allow this index of articles
 [ to be put in a Web searchable database.  So far, however this
 [ has not been approved.

(Re disk/disc: do you remember the software company that sold its
products on "discettes" ?)
