 i recently managed to lay my hands on TurboDOS.prg.  As you all know, it was
mentioned in here a little while back.  I understand that this program can be
gotten from the Atari FRANCE BBS.

 First, the bad news. It takes up about 103K RAM (bad since it's one of those
things that you put in your AUTO folder). Now the good news.  It seems to
really work.  My configuration is a monochrome 1040ST with a 20Meg Supra HD.
As you all know, doing a 'df' used to take about 10 secs, and with the
DISKFREE.prg program, that was reduced to about 2-3 secs. With TurboDOS, it's
instantaneous!!!  No kidding.  Program loads in a zip, reads/writes are
faster, and it caches directories/FATs.  It's a must for hard-drive owners.
I like to email it to Steve to post, but am not sure if it's public domain.
(don't ask how i got it. I have contacts in Europe :-).
Please let me know, someone.

 I understand that the next ROM release will take care of most of the 
problems with the current OS, and it'll also take care of things taken care
of by TurboDOS.prg.  I believe the new ROMS will be out before year's end
and no sarcasm meant here.  I still think that i've got the best system for
the amount of money I paid for.

 Publishing partner professional has been delayed for another 4 weeks again.
I'm getting a little annoyed. How come there's very little mention of PPartner
on this net?  For those who used 9-pin dot-matrix for printing PP stuff and
noticed that 12 point size is of the right height but that the thickness of
the characters are inconsistent, try using 6 point size but set styles to
WIDE and TALL.  The output should come out beautifully.
