[XCSSA] Amiga help??

I thought ParNet was an amiga-to-amiga network.  Anyway, I think 
PC2Amiga was a later program that has pretty well been the standard for 
Amiga/PC file transfers (at least, without using ethernet...which was a 
very rarely used by Amiga hobbyists, you had to be very serious to have 
that capability, I still don't even though I've got two of the very rare 
cards for it).  IIRC, you could use standard serial or laplink parallel 
cables with PC2Amiga.  I started with serial and once I saw how useful 
it was I got the laplink parallel cable.  It even handles Windows 
extended filenames which means it was still being supported in 1995.
