Marius, you may find this hard to believe, but my story is almost the same as yours. And I DO agree that SpartaDOS is the most powerful for the Atari 8 bit world, but I am at the stage where 99% of the time, I don't require that awesome power. Almost all my ATR's are XDOS based that boot just the program I want. That's also how I run The Last Word and every other "large" stand-alone program. And once I discovered PicoDOS, I now mostly use multi program / game boot disks (XDOS based) that boot instantly and allow me to select any number of games or programs from any size ATR with my SDrive-Max. So I am content with this operational scenario and was only looking for one more bonus feature added to XDOS. I did appreciate hearing your back story, even with the touch of sarcasm! ?
