Notes on some of the sites in the FTP section:
- ftp.amug.org (204.62.193.2)
/pub/
The Arizona Macintosh Users Group (AMUG) ftp site is one of the major Mac
sites on the net. The only problem the site has is that it tends to be
very hard for non-members to log on and there are few mirror sites.
WWW: http://www.amug.org/
- ftp.bups.bilkent.edu.tr (139.179.90.35)
/pub/mac/
Bilkent University Preparatory School Macintosh archive. It contains more
than 2000 files collected from well known archives and still getting new
ones.

- shadowmac.org (198.174.169.112)
/pub/
This is the prince of mac shadow archives; not only does it mirror Mac
and Newton sites (apple, bio.indiana_mac, info-mac, mac-develop, macfaq,
macpsych, macscitech, onramp_mac, uiowa_newton, umich_mac, utexas_mac,
and utk_mac_math), it provides its own growing archive file library, providing
mirrors of general information sites like CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive
Network), RTFM newsgroups FAQs & texts, and Fidonet related mirrors.
Note at present it supports only 100 FTP users in a class between 0800
thru 1700 CST weekdays and more FTP users outside those hours, so be gentle.
