-
- Well the machine has not been updated for 3 years other than bugfixes.
- You'd be a fool not to demand a major upgrade which is not coming as 3.2 will
- also be a bugfix.

- Seems to me that power users prefer newicons.maybe it can be optional or
- via a pack.

-
- this is exactly the wasy to go standartize loaders/savers so that any program
- may save any type.if you prefer you may not use them off course.

-
- 1. compile all roms to 030 as this is the entry level machine.
- 2. yes you will get a faster rom because you will get a faster machine and
- that is recommended if you wanna be slow go ahead and stick to your old rom
- but option must exist.
-
- >what? You dont know how to use the format command?
-
- I do very well but its cli imlimentation is lame and it a has a severe bug.

-
- Sadly you are out of date cybergfx has been enhanced to work with aga
- with release 3.0.So - i ws right!
-
-
- also you might know that quoting the entire letter costs the entire usenet
- bandwith and precious time your smilis and 'i agree' , 'ok' are tottaly
- unecessary.Its not like i seek your agreement or your aproval ... Do not
