One of the most important things about it, to me, is that it does work with Spartados, even with that weird kix environment.. [It's weird, but it works wonderfully.. I type DOS from KIX to go to SpartaDos, and hit break to go back to KIX. It's wonderfull.. The editor that comes with it isn't that great, but I use Analog's T:EDIT anyways.. The documentation dosen't seem to have any problems regarding the kix environment, as you said, it's not that complicated, but I can't see any problems.. Maybe you got the Apple version docs by mistake or something? And YOU DON'T NEED EVERYTHING ON THE SAME DISK.. I have the most used files copied to ramdisk (130xe, 64k ramdisk), and then some stuff on drive 2, like include files, and some other things that are used rather often, or just even used, since my 2nd drive is a happy, and happy's don't work well with SpartaDos when you right to them, so.. And then my drive 1, u.s. doubler, is my workdisk, my sources, output files, everything else in between fits on there just fine.. I would imagine you would have to do alot of waiting and disk swapping if you didn't have a ramdisk, and only had one drive, but I have no problems..
