Well, don't blame MicroNet. They didn't make any deals with you.

On the other hand, I'd say you've got a legitimate gripe with Tony. He's
got some excuse- he's halfway around the world right now, as far as I can
tell. Still, he's on the net occasionally. Maybe he's willing to send you
another one, if you ask.

Is your copy fully functional, across multiple tapes, with tar and cpio?
If not, what's broken and what definitely works?

BTW, for all that MicroNat owes you nothing, they are nice enough that they
might be willing to help you, or at least put you in touch with Tony.
