Well this is a free country, I never signed a contract I wouldn't tell,
I'm not a registered developer, after all this net is for Atari info.!

This weekend I met up with someone who had TOS 1.4 (I don't no how he
got it, or even his name(I was more interestead in the ROM info.)).  He
said that it has some nice features.  He said now when you copy files,
instead of just displaying how many files to go, it also displays the
names of the files.  He said disk I/O is increased "umpteen times"
(that's a direct quote).  He said he hadn't fooled around much with its
internals and didn't know about internal error corrections such as
malloc.  He really didn't say much else but that it seemed to have many
new *niceties* such as the file names being displayed as they are
copied.  I was in somewhat of a hurry and couldn't ask him detailed
questions, he also was very anxious to offer info., but he seemed as if
he hadn't worked much with it or didn't want to offer details.
<<<<<<<<<<<<Remember this is information from someone I don't really
know, but it should be reliable..
