- I think DC-FFS on the hard drive is OK, I changed over to it soon after
- I got my first A1200 and haven't looked back since, it's much faster at
- displaying directory listing and the like. If you use a file manager,
- just list your fonts dir and you'll see what I mean. But there again
- most people will think I must be odd, as I prefer SID2 to *any* version
- of DOPUS.
