Cache sizes that small won't do anything.  Expect to give up at least 200K for
an 80 meg hard drive.  I'm unfamiliar with how the numbering works using ICD's
latest and greatest, so you'll have to interpret 200K to whatever those cat-
egories mean (they seem redundant to me).

Also, your Newsgroups: line is set to your Email address; please try 'n fix
that, as it can make replying a pain.
