Bill,

Great talk on Saturday, you gave me a lot of ideas I'm still chewing
on. Making an image of the CF to use with AppleWin has dramatically
increased my productivity; as opposed to popping the CF into Windows,
mounting it, putting back into the IIe, lather...rinse...repeat. I'm
not quite there yet but feeling much better about my progress. My hope
is to make a wiki when I'm all set up, detailing all of the process
for a complete newb (like myself).

Thanks again!

Josh
