	It stopped spinning up, and I was just joking about sending the
drive.  I'm not actually sure I still have the drive or if I 	tossed
it, but I still have a small pile of fubar drives.  I 	think I remember
some deal from DAK that came with WordStar 	Professional and other
bundled software.  I recall one of those holographic labels stuck to the
DOS manual that said "Firenze" or "Firense," but I can't be sure of the
version.  My usually excellent memory is just a bit hazy on things back
then.  It was amazing what could be stuffed onto a 25 meg drive back in
those days, though.  For some odd reason, easier to operate, too.
