[comp.sys.amiga] A note about R&D and where the Amiga is going

	I though of this after I read my last batch of articles and don't
have the original post to Follow-up to so I posted a new message...  Why
does everyone insist on 1.44 MB floppies.  We're slipping into the IBM
rut again people!  Just because IBM decided to make their high density
disks 720k*2 doesn't mean we have to!  Why not 1.6 MB  2*880k?  Why not
2MB - the full capacity of the HD disks.  Why is it necessary to make the
HD storage 2x the DD storage?  Hardware capable of read/writing 2MB disks
will easily be able to read IBM 1.44MB disks if the need arose.
