I seem to recall that ther was a program that allowed A1000's to have kickstart and workbench on one disk - called KickBench. Anybody know where such a beast could be found? I looked around at a few FTP sites - and they haven't heard of it.

Contains listings of thousands of hardware and software items, and is updated every 6 months or so. Go down to your favorite magazine stand and buy one today! Another good reference is Aquarium, a program found on FF301.
