   First of all, DOSMounter *could* be slowing it down a bit. I've noticed
that when I've used it. Another thing, Saving a file is not the same as the
Finder Copying a file. Saving involves figuring out what should be in the
file, etc. where copying a file only involves moving data from one spot to
another. And, of course, floppies are very slow to begin with.
