Does the discussion above mean that HDX 3.00 
is freely distributable via BBSes.
If so, where can I get it if I don't 
have access to these BBSes? Could it be
posted to binaries.atari.st?
Or was it already posted there?

Any info on this would be appreciated.

Another question: is TOS1.4 EVER going to be distributed in the
form of 1MBit ROMS (which can easily be inserted into yon
Mega ST without having to scratch around on the motherboard,
change MMUs and TTL drivers and all that useless effort)? Or
will it remain forever in the form of 6 Eproms/Proms/Roms. What
about people with a motherboard that doesn't have room for 6
ROMS?

Any info on this would also be appreciated.

So long, netland
