One suggestion. Integrated the Nadanet with a IIgs instead of
the IIe. Incorporate the extra ram in the IIgs and then get the
Nadanet to play the entire piece in the IIgs ram. I know how
much you like the IIe, but others might like to know that they
can have 1, 4, or 8 MB of space to play music from.  :o)
