Linda,

SIO is a communication driver to -replace- IBM's driver.  SIO works better.
Havent used ZOC in a few years.  For me it was an over kill.
You can have FD2 running as a mail/file request system w/o running a BBS. 
Theres an setting for NO BBS in it.  Before I joined Fido, I picked a node
number in it for a BBS in my area and used it just to get files.  Probably
not approved, but I didnt do anything destructive so what the hill..  :}
FD can also be used to receive faxes if you have a fax modem & a program like
BGFAX.
