	Sometimes it does, sometimes not.  Right after I posted the previous
message, I rebooted the way I normally do (the same 3 fingers, everything! ;-)) 
and this time, NoiseTracker worked perfectly from the floptical.  It's kind of
once in a while that the floptical becomes "unrecognised" under Prodos-8.  I
also used to be able to boot straight into Prodos-8 and access the floptical
from there (the first couple of weeks when I first got it, I believe), but now
I have to boot into GS/OS FIRST before I can use it in Prodos-8.  That makes no
sense, does it?  What is in GS/OS that is used by Prodos-8???

[splendid Transwarp explanation deleted to save bandwidth]
	Thanx for that.  Helped clear up a lot of things.  Welp, I guess the
next thing I've gotta do is to figger out how to modify my Transwarp to 15
Mhz...;-) ;-)  Gods, can't believe I've spent that much money on my GS... TWGS,
HD, floptical, Ram, IW LQ...  what more do I need??  Hmm... missing one of
those CD-ROM drives and a magneto optical, tape backup.  Any more?? ;-)
	Ciao.
