Michael B. Vederman asks me the following:

|  Why are you running GDOS all the time?
|  
|  I would only suggest running GDOS with programs that need it.  I have the new
|  ROMS, which really speed up system response, and when I run GDOS the sytem is
|  really unusable -- ie., SLOOOOOWWWWW!!!
  
I thought that GDOS had to be in the \AUTO\ folder, and therefore loaded each
and every time!  Mine doesn't like to be loaded manually.  Am I missing
something?

|  The problem has to do with VDI handles and the like.  I will look into it.
  
Thanks, though!

P.S.  Does anybody know of a trivial program that could be put in a batch file
and cause the ST to reset (or reboot)?
P.P.S.  Reply directly to me since I do not get USENET news.
