	You're an optimist, aren't you? ;)  Sadly, there will probably 
never be an update from _Apple_, but 'tis rumored that someone else is 
working on an update...we can only hope...

: I suppose that this may seem to be a dumb question, but can anyone write 
: a version of ProDOS that can access storage devices with more than 32K 
: capacity so that partitions can be larger.....?      

	I would be interested in this too...  Any programmers out there 
listening?  I guess first we should ask whether it's feasible or not and 
then ask who would be willing to do it if it was possible (and if it is, 
why wasn't it done long ago?).
