     Firstly, thanks to everyone who replied to my request for info on the 
40-Folder bug - I'll try reading the FAT instead of visiting each folder.

	Now..from what I have read here recently, am I to understand that even the
lastest ROMs do not fix this pathetic bug?? _Surely_ a bug like this could have
easily been fixed (although I do not profess to know the 'ins and outs' of it),
and make the ST nearer to the perfect machine than it is already?

   While on the subject of new ROMs, can anyone suggest a valid reason for 
purchasing them, how much , where from etc? I apologise in advance if this
information has been posted before, but I don't get to read rn that often.

      Cheers,
              David.
