You might be interested in the new INIT that a couple of hard-headed BMUG members created. It is a parking program for 400 and 800K floppy drives.

The programs name is SafeEject and is on BMUG Utilities 14 disk. daviD morgensterN BMUG CheerLeader We're in the Business of Giving Away Information. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- FidoNet: 1:161/445 UUCP: sun!apple!bmug!<User.Name> INTERNET: bmug!<User.Name>@apple.COM or <User.Name>@bmug.fidonet.org USNAIL: BMUG, 1442A Walnut St. #62, Berkeley, CA 94709-1496 ------------------------------------------------------------- BMUG Newsletter articles due June 15!
