	Comments:	A couple of cases where ダウン does seem to be used for download, but it's really marginal. I'll approve and reindex the sentences.

	Comments:	I think "being down" is fine but that sense did need expanding. Added senses. I don't think "download" is right. I've seen アップ used as an abbreviation for アップロード but never ダウン for ダウンロード. Not in the refs either.

	Comments:	I think there's something with sense 2 that is not quite right. I think it's not the act of being down, but the act of running out of strength, crashing halfway. 学研国語大辞典 uses 「酒を飲み過ぎてついにダウンした」 as the example. "Being down" clearly doesn't fit there. In a competitive test of endurance you might say to your partner 「俺より先にダウンすんじゃねーぞ！」 "Don't you dare to drop (collapse) before me" I hope an editor can take a look at this and suggest a solution.
