[DECtalk] Status and uploads

[shaun everiss]

yes I do.
I got those off dc, but the person I got em off is not doing that right now.
If you wanted them I couldn't give em to you, all the legality and so forth.
and that its like 1.65gb and really I don't have the space and they would take for ever to upload
