Bud, it is true that there is some software that has trouble with the new
ROMs, but updates are available from the companies in question.  The ROM
_fixes_ many bugs (most of which were previously fixed by TOOL.SETUP when/if
you booted a P16 disk) rather than introducing new ones.

I can't think of anything that would affect hard disk speed in the new ROM.
Actually, there's nothing in the ROM that has anything to do with hard disk
speed--the disk I/O is all through ProDOS and the drive's ROM.
