Here's yabsp (busted software posting)
Can someone collect/organize these things and post summarys to
the net? I'll volunteer if nobody else is doing it.

Here's my setup:
	A3000-25/100 w/ production WB 2.0 xxx.68 (yes, I'll be more exact
from now on (:-)) and 1M chip + 1M fast (std config)

I tried orig. copies of the following software booting them w/ a
floppy in the drive from a warm restart - ie *not* launched from
WB after CBM's and my startup-sequences.

behavior better.

*****************************************************************
btw 2.0 is *nice*! way to go CBM! I'll give details & kudos
as I explore it. Suffice to say for now that the 3-D WB w/ window
fill patterns is quite slick. A *very* easy to use hd partitioning
tool.
