Try Rufus.

The SuperCharger works.

Yes, there is a TT update. (ST-High only!)

Try MultiGEM from Maxon in Germany. It's a MultiFinder-clone for the
ST which will soon be released for the TT, too.

Why do you think so? I don't think they're using many floating point
ops in Easydraw, do they? Better get some TT RAM and let it run there;
this gives you 20 to 40 % more performance. You might also move TOS
into fast RAM which makes for another noticeable speed boost.
