I am quite certain that I have the binary file (Cisco CBOS 2.4.3.bin) on
my laptop (Windows) but I do believe that the bin file is not linked to
any platform and it could be used with Mac/Linux/Windows and a terminal
program. Let me know if you want me to hook up my laptop and make it
available for d/L.

I also have downloaded the 7.3 binary cd's (3) and finally got my cd
writer re-connected again after major home redecorating project.
