QuickTime Player seems to open PICT files on my machine. So if you
have QuickTime Pro, this is probably the easiest way of converting
them to a modern format (PDF or so). Also, since after all Apple
invented that format, the converted file should contain as much info
as there was in the original file, so if turns out to be a low-
resolution bitmap, that's probably just what the files are...
