Chris,

Can't speak for the RGB-DOS exactly. I can tell that it was feature 
lacking, things that were partially implemented when we acquired it. AS far 
as the format. ?? HDB-DOS works and Boisy has put a lot of work into this 
package..... I use MAC drives all the time. Night and day difference 
between the two. Supports the Ken-ton too.

Regards,

Mark
