I'm all for some sort of mass storage on the SAM, but how will the directory structure work? on yer average PC you get FATs and clusters - how will SAM deal with this; on that note, why not make it in PC format and amend the DOS (or rather extend it).
That will mean it can read my PC discs :) As for directories, can you imagine shifting up and down directories using MDOS command syntax? Urgh! I think CP/M could handle Hard Drives (I'm never sure on CP/M) and that was an eight bitter -so could its principles be applied to SAM? Not wanting to seem pessimistic, but it's gonna be a lemon unless something drastic is done. And as for 40Mb.... do I really need to say? Dan Doore
