If, as has been suggested, you wouldn't be able to run system 7.0 without a hard disk, then there would be no way to FORMAT your hard disk when it was installed unformatted, there would be no way to boot from a floppy when your hard disk went ou;t [sic -- damn apple keyboard] to lunch, etc. Granted that system 7.0 might not be very friendly on a floppy-only system, but there is NO WAY anyone is going to make a computer system that relies on a working hard disk to run. IMHO, of course -- I am not an apple employee, nor have I seen 7.0. This posting is purely optimism. Pete Harlan harlan@silver.ucs.indiana.edu
