From what I've been told, the incoming line voltage will affect the drive rotational speed. If your line voltage is off by enough then Marauder will not work. As with all back-up programs always verify the copy you've made is a good one before you rest easier (believing that your software is safe). In two or three months the people who brought you the Clone Machine for the 64 will introduce their product for the Amiga. From what I hear, it doesn't need those funny numbers that Marauder does. I also have heard that the Amiga Clone Machine will have a lot of use- ful functionality (automagic disk repair a la fsck etc) that Marauder doesn't have (yet). The above is pure gossip overheard from good sources. Perry S. Kivolowitz
