	Thank you for all the people who suggested different ideas of how to
squeeze the new desktop into the ST ROM. Someone suggested to use the cartridge
port and most of the others suggested to put it on the disk. Technically, they
are all O.K, and I will reflect all the opinions to management people.   

	As of today, I believe the STE will have the new desktop.
