Craig,
I have downloaded from three sources and can find no executable to 
launch the install.

"We usually distribute Ghostscript releases for Windows as 
self-extracting archive files, since this is the most convenient form 
for users. These files can also be unpacked as if they were plain zip files.

The self-extracting archive is normally named gs###w32.exe, where ### is 
the release number (e.g., 650 for Ghostscript 6.50, 700 for Ghostscript 
7.00)."

I can find no download site the "self-extracting archive is normally 
named gs###w32.exe".

Thanks,
-Mike
