 I also use HD drisks in heimat - I did however have to change from the
 Matashuta (sp?) drive to a Chinon - Reason I use (some) HD disks is
 simply because their free - I  read alot of Messy-DOS magazines and
 weekly/monthly newspapers where somone is always offering a *FREE*
 demo disk - I look at the demo and then format the disk for Amiga use
