Powerbook 170

[colin hodder]

Okay, here's the thing.  I emailed this message already, and got one 
response sent directly to me.  However, I just found out that hotmail was 
sending almost all the messages from this list into my junk mail and that 
every reply before a couple of days ago was deleted.  So, I've fixed the 
problem and I'm sending the message again in case anyone offered a reply 
before and it didn't make it to me before.  If you emailed me before and 
your name is not Bob C. then I did not get the message.  Thanks.

Hey, I just got a Powerbook 170 for five dollars at a flea market.  It has 
decent versions of word, Powerpoint, and excel on it already, which makes it 
useful to me.   However, I've found a bunch of other old programs for it on 
the internet that need to be opened using stuffit expander.  My powerbook 
won't recognize anything that needs to be opened this way and I can't get
it to recognize any versions of stuffit I've downloaded.  I am downloading 
on my office pentium something point something and have a free version of 
transmac installed to transfer to the old powerbook.  However, the only way 
I can get anything from the office computer to the little mac is by using 
three and a half disks.  I'm not exactly a master of the high tech, so lets 
just assume I know almost nothing at all.  I do know that I am running 
system 7.0.1, and have 4 MB of RAM.  I've looked everywhere for an 
explanation of what to do and haven't found one.
Anyone have any suggestions?
