The alternative is to load LDDRIVER from the OpenVMS Freeware CDs
(or from the OpenVMS website). Configure a suitable sized container
file. Do a BACKUP/IMAGE of the CD onto the LD drive. Dismount and
disconnect the LD drive and do a binary ftp of the container file
to the laptop.

The CDRWin route is probably quicker unless his OpenVMS experience
exceeds his Windows expereience.
