Yes, but not so much fun as workable. The 20MB is just 
enough to hold all the utilities that I need to do the 
work I do on that particular machine. I reserve the 
MicroDrive with adapter and 256MB CF card for storing 
archives and I also have a second IIgs with a 128MB 
card in a CFFA. Another CFFA with 64MB is in my //e. 
It's all good really. I still want another SCSI card 
though. Just so I can have a CD drive working.  :o)
