I have alleviated much of my trouble by using my 5 1/4" drive for a Workbench. It holds all the libs:, l:, and devs: directories – complete with all the support programs for everything I use very much. And my c: directory goes into ram. This makes the system quite usable – but still, the 5 1/4: drive can't hold even one more handler, device, etc. It is full. And there isn't nearly enough of my memory left after uploading that bloated C: directory. Yes, a hard disk would be nice – but I think lots of programmers are forgetting that hard disk owners are in the minority of their prospective customers. An awful lot of people don't even have two floppies! Betty
