(Re: ASDG VD0: DOES NOT WORK!)

I've been using the RAD: that Commodore supplies for eighteen months or so with no problems whatever, and except for a couple of times when I was running some really braindead demo code, that trashed it thoroughly, it's never failed to recover for me. I use a 6.5 meg RAD: every day, sloshing files around like crazy while multitasking for all I'm worth. Why are people still searching for a recoverable ram disk? "It's in there!" If there's something horribly wrong with RAD:, I'm not sure I want to know at this late date. Is my computer about to develop dry rot or something? ;-) /// It's Amiga /// for me: why Kent, the man from xanth. \\\/// settle for \XX/ anything less?
