I've finally gotten around to partitioning off my 15.3Gb HD, only I was using
old style partitions in an attemp to allow them to coexist with Dos 6.22 &
company.  Problem was, they can only be used up till a certain sector of the
harddrive, so there's a massive chunk of unused harddrive at the moment, so I'll
have to convert the last partition into Fat32 and I'm guessing that the version
of Win95 will be able to use it, if not it's safely isolated from the rest of
the HD, so I'm in no danger.  Lots of dents in this brick wall from my forehead,
if at all posible, pass your computers on to someone who needs them before they
get this old.
