transfer instantly

but have goofy formatting

and omit illustrations, maps, and graphs

Slides are screen captured images of Powerpoint presentations. They

and have poor screen resolution

Win95 and Office97 (not tested on Office95)

~10 mb free disc space

lots of memory

a fiber-optic connection (modems are too slow)

and endless patience for downloading files
