	Meg-A-Minute was published by STart about 4 years ago, an updated
version was published about 2 years ago.  You can probably still get 
those back issues from Antic Publishing.

        Meg-A-Minute Elite is just the latest version of the program.
It fixed a few bugs, added support for more than 4 partitions and made
the program a little less dependent on a single OS rev (the original
Twister format code needed access to some OS private floppy structures).
There were some other changes but since it was written close to 3 years
ago I don't remember any of them.

        The name came from Dave and I deciding to follow Tom Hudson's
lead in program naming instead of just having a nice boring version 2.
