ZIP DOESN'T WORK ON MAC WITH SOFTPC(AT)

ZIP.COM (the file transfer program used in the Palmtop Paper Subscribers Disk) will not work on the Mac under SoftPC(AT)! It expects to have some very reliable hardware timing that is not possible to emulate with the Mac software. I tried this very early on in various different configurations, but have concluded that it was a lost cause.

Perhaps it can be made to work with the newer, high-speed Macs (Quadra 950), but I did not test it.
