Would you be interested in downgrading to a 20M miniscribe (a la APPLE) and a
little (I stress the word little 'cuz that's all I got) $$$ for your 80M?

My philosophy was never "When in doubt, throw it out!", it was more "Keep it in
case" and "If you keep it, make sure you can get at it quickly!" :-) :-)

PS
I would not have any problem filling your 80M, and THAT's just with
applications. I haven't even got ahold of a compiler yet! then I'll have files
all over the place!

Such is the delema of a Mac-man.
