What made me ask that is your blurb when you first login, it says something about being in the 21st century with your Mega STe so I *assumed* (yeah, I know) that you were using it again. That's the why behind my question. :) Okay, I went through the same thing with my Mega ST4 that runs DarkForce. Do what I did, get the STorm ST and the Lightning ST. That way you've got TOS v2.06, EMUTos, and fast, easy, convenient USB support so you can copy and backup files with a SD-card. I love it! /\ Dark>
