I am looking for a microfilm of Paris, BN, MS lat 987 (the 'Ramsey'
Benedictional). I have sent for a copy, but that will take some time.
Meanwhile, I have an article on the Benedictional of St Aethelwold due
soon, and need to check several things. If someone has a copy they would
be willing to let me borrow I should be ever so grateful.

Bill

Subject: from one machine to another
 
It's just in the last couple of years that many people have gotten really
big hard drives on home/office machines.  I bought one in 1991 with a 200
MB drive and now DOS 6.0 has oomphed it to almost 400.  I just had a
qualm at the thought that someday I will leave this machine.  What's the
most efficient way to transfer a disk load of files like that to a new
machine?  Is there a way to cable a to b and do it rapidly?  The thought
of some version of DOS backup and hundreds of floppies (the extension of
my old technique when abandoning a mere 30MB drive) does not appeal to me.

There is a push here at the University of Kansas to install hardware
and software for on-demand and custom textbook publishing on Kodak
Lionheart or Xerox Docutech or some such equipment.  Does anyone have
any experience with this?  It seems like a great help to blending
research with teaching.  Is this a great pedagogical boon, or a
another high-tech distraction?

Does anyone know of any readily available Macintosh fonts for doing
Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics?  Thanks.
