	No, they are NOT shareware.  You cannot get them except by buying
them from Activision, which bought Infocom many years ago.

	You can get either the "Lost Treasures of Infocom" but that has
far more games than you're specifically interested in.  (If you haven't
played them maybe you do want this whole collection!)

	Or else there is a newer collection of just the Zork games.  Look
for that in mail order catalogs or computer stores, and ask about it if
you can't find it.  They should be able to look it up.  I don't  see it
mentioned on Activision's web site..
