Well, I found a system bomber and I don't remember if anyone else has
mentioned it.  If you have TOS in ROMs and you are at an Item Selector
box and you want to change the directory path to go into a folder that
has an underscore ('_') in it's name, forget it!  The instant that you
type the underscore, it will bomb out!  I have tried it om several
different STs an they all do the same thing!  What I suggest is to stay
away from using the underscore until Atari comes out with a new TOS ROM
set. (Hey Atari, any plans for that?).
