John Henders: Re the rom disk 
 
John no you read my message wrong or I posted it wrong. I was refering 
to the blowing of the _rom_disk_  not the actual execution of the rom 
disk.  As in the making of a eprom for your rom cart to become a rom 
disk.
 
It is faster than a Hard disk or a floppy disk , well it has to be with 
direct cpu access . So no a rom disk is far faster than a hard disk.
 
Mind you John you did bring a good point to bare and one I asked rick 
from Gribnif last year about [the makers of neodesk] why not put neodesk 
in ROM ?  It works for me.
