No, no, no!  The ST hangs upon accessing (MS-DOS 3.3) subdirectories, even
when it reads files, even very long ones, from the root directory with no
problem!

I've heard that (for now?) ALL PS/2 models can read/write the 720K format,
so if we can just figure this out, there won't be problems communicating
with those poor MS-DOS users for a while yet!

PS: still seeking the ST---5"drive connection specs.  Anybody kind enough?
