 I get the overwhelming impression some of you have never really investigated
what you are using: MSDOS *has* a limit of 511 files in the _root_ directory of
a disk. I believe there is a limit to number of subdirs too, isn't there?


 So; was the statement (A: above) true, or not?  ;-)
  (btw: I _have_ changed "Q:" to say "root dir" instead ;)

 The PowerAmiga seems to become a *CHRP* / *PPCP* compliant machine.
 Meaning it will run Copland, Win NT, certain U**X'es; and *AmigaOS*

 An  Amiga-expierenced  'person'  will  know  what  that means: as the
 AmigaOS has a *very* *low* *overhead* (i.e. it is *fast*) there is a
 nice "possibility" that the PowerAmiga will be *very* fast.
