Ben,
Well, I was never unsatisfied with Emplant's speed, even if it
was slower than now it was more than adequate. The problem then was
that you couldn't read 800k Mac disks without Sybil reliably and it
didn't write either 800k or HD format floppies. My problem was that
at work I wouldn't be able to read my colleagues disks nor write ones
they could read because Emplant then didn't write a Mac format
compatible disk. I also couldn't get a large enough system allocated
because with only 8 meg of fast ram I could only allocate about a 3.5
meg system. With System 7.0 loaded there wasn't enough ram left to
load Word let alone edit a file! With 7.1 the system allocation is
even larger. Currently my system uses a shade under 3.0 meg. Emplant
couldn't use any more than half the available ram, at the time. Guess
that has all changed. Perhaps I should put in an order, again, and
give it a try once more.
