Well, my name isn't Bob, but I seem to recall a program called "FAT Slimmer" or something like that... I know it had the FAT in there somewhere. FAT Dropper? FAT Loss? FAT Remover? Something along those lines. I always meant to try it out but it hadn't occurred to me to run it on the system software itself. Makes sense now :) I wonder what it might do for 8.1? Or, for that matter, 8.5. One of these days I plan on trying a reverse of the 8.1 on '030s on Gamba's site and do a totally basic (IE everything unchecked except the System install) universal install of 8.5 on a Quadra and see if I can't get it to do something interesting. I don't actually expect it to work, but I'm just weird like that :) Scott Holder -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
