Well i'm basically not after the added space. I'm just addressing the fact
that some boxes don't have the drive bays to accept 2 floppy drives (one normal
floppy, one LS), and given the choice, guess which device wins out \8). The
sad point is that rtbt won't work on an LS120, which was the root of this
discussion.
