REDMOND, WA -- Microsoft beta software programmers have been working
frantically over the last ten weeks on a brand new OS code revelation.
Productivity manager, John Guru says, "Fairydisk is the one thing people
are gonna buy, its' gonna sell like hot cakes!". 

Fairydisk is Microsoft's new, exciting product which enables you to write
to a 3.25" floppy, about a tiny bit larger than a standard one, but the
space increases are amazing.

Bill Gates says, "The fundamental difference between the corolation of the
corona of the first disk drive, is effersesent in soda to the second".
Bill Gates was on drugs when he answered and our lawyers are currently
seeking compensation, after a box of Chicago beta packages fell of their
heads.

To understand the Fairydisk, we need to talk to the Product manager,
"Fairydisk is a new concept. For a slightly increased size, you get an
extra 4 bytes!". The extra 4 bytes would be useful for holding the nessary
slack space for the FAT filesystem, many agree.
