[X-Newbies] downloading audio books

[Ann S. Carroll]

Cy, I can't really answer your specific question.  I tried to use VPC  
to run programs that required an internet connection, online auction  
bidding programs.  I was never able to make them work.  Maybe someone  
else will be able to address your specific need.
