     For sure, v9.0 and 9.1 turned out to be turkies. One very nice
feature is the File Compare; but, just the problems working with /RAM5
greatly limit v9.x usefulness.

     It's good to hear about C2P 8.4. Perhaps you could upload it to
Asimov in .sdk (shrinked disk) or .dsk (DSK2FILE disk image) form.
