- Some people just don't appreciate the finer things....
- I've got a Viper, with a tower case, is it okay to suddenly switch between 030
- and 020 while the computers on? I wouldn't think so but it would be kooky if
- you could, just like the peecees with their displays. I've already used my
- turbo button for ext. floppy enable/disable so I could use the keyswitch
- (which is better, no accidental switchings)
