	PC-Dos 2.10 WILL format a 20 meg hard drive! It may not `support'
it in the sense if something is wrong with the hard drive after 15 megs
I think. I have used PC-DOS 2.1 to format a 20 hard drive from Qubie' and
then I have moved MS-Dos over to the hard drive. This is because Tandy
at first was not selling there Hard Disk utilities when the Tandy 1000
just came out. If you bought a hard disk from Tandy then you got the formatting
programs, if you purchased elsewhere forget it (now they have changed).
Using this technique of putting Tandy's Ms-Dos onto the 20 meg drive I have
disproved several Tandy people because I am using the Original rom Bios that
the older versions of the Tandy 1000s were using, they said it couldn't be
done without THEIR drives.
