     As great (REALLY GREAT!!!) as Spectre 128 is, there is one item missing
that I haven't been able to locate which would complete the product more
than it already is.  We need a hard drive parker that can be run from within
Spectre 128.
     When I bring the system down, I am always having to reboot the the
"ST part of my computer" so that I can run my head park program.  I wish we
had an equivalent program that can run from within Spectre.
     I have tried some of the Macintosh PD parkers but, for obvious reasons,
they don't work.
     Does anyone know of such a program, if not, could someone, as if they
really had nothing to do, write one and share it?  Not asking for much, am I...
