: indeed, my IIGS had a 20megs scsi HD and it was only half
full...).

A 100MB zip disk would be 3 x 33MB ProDOS partitions, or
a single 100MB HFS partition. Half full ??? I just now did
a properties check on my Apple2 folder on my PC hard drive,
and it was 2.17GB. I have a 128MB CF card in a reader on my
PC that I have filled 3 times and copied to another area of
my hard drive. That's about 375MB more that I've found. Hard
drives of 20-40MB are a drop in the bucket these days. There
have been reports of people with 1-9GB hard drives on their
Apple IIgs's, for whatever reason, and they could be from half
to all the way full depending on how much of what is available
they have on it. Come now, 10MB ???
