It's better than the cocoII, but disk access still whomps the keyboard. Your best solutions here are: a) Get a hard disk (most controllers buffer at the sector level, and use simple loops to transfer the code into ram) b) Get a Sardis (or Disto.. new) floppy controller. c) Run completely out of RAM based modules (an option, but not recommended). -- Pete Lyall Usenet: {trwrb, scgvaxd, ihnp4, voder, vortex}!wlbr!pete Compuserve: 76703,4230 (OS9 Sysop) OS9 (home): (805)-985-0632 (24hr./1200 baud)
