All of the files in the Software Collection are in the .zip format meaning that they are compressed so that they download faster. You’ll need an unzipping program to decompress the file after you have downloaded it. If you are using Windows 95/98/NT I recommend using WinZip which is available in the File Viewer section of the Software Collection, and if you are using a Macintosh then I recommend using Aladdin Systems Expander also available in the File Viewer section. After downloading and decompressing the files, you simply use the Palm Install Tool that came with your Palm Desktop software to install the necessary files, you can find out more about the Palm Install Tool in the User’s Guide that came with your Palm. There is a good tutorial here: http://www.palmsource.com/applications/howto.html Here is another: http://www.jimthompson.net/palmpda/Tips/downloadtips.htm Also, Handango has two Palm software download and installation tutorials here: http://software.palm.com/Palm_Tutorial.
