Downloading files task

I downloaded an html editor called Taco, and some ftp programs called Cyberduck and another one `i ofrget the name of. I've also downloaded ICQ as part of the unit, and several other programs like Imol which is a molecular biology viewer program.

I think its best to have the aid of a techie at work if you're using a work machine (which I am). Plus I'm still getting used to OS X and Panther, and I still can't figure out what rights I've got on my machine and network.

But I did notice that in OS X you have all the utilities you need available and all you have to do is figure out the unix commands, which are pretty much natural language - so cool, I only just realized this but will explore further with more time (if I ever get any!!) Oh yes, and I also downloaded PDA software and have synched once with the Tungsten 3 I've been told to play with.

Other tips - if youre after free software then ZDnet is the place to go.
