- Neither MSH or MultiDos (my former favorite) seem to support CBM's new HD
- drives and doesn't support the new international format modes. Since
- CrossDos comes integrated with 2.1, you'll want to get 2.1 ASAICO (as soon
- as it comes out). It works excellent all around and lets me work with
- MS-DOS 1.44 meg disks.
