Hi Jonathan, You're welcome.
Re. 4Mb on A: -- I know, right??!!??!! This M-100 is now more capable than my Kaypro, which has only 390K per disk. And more portable :-) CP/M does offer an alternative to directories: USER areas. Just type USER 1 to get to it, and you have 15 more. Some programs will throw you back into USER area 0 when they run, so watch out for that.
