I am told that with MacWorks 3.0 and the Development System(s) 3.0, hard disk
coexistence on Apple's ProFiles will be permitted. For those of us with
existing Lisas, the behavior will be: backup like crazy; "cold" boot MacWorks
and then a special Hard Disk Install program, which checks for Development 3.0
on the hard disk (and refuses to proceed unless a 3.0 system is running);
define a fixed partition size (say, a megabyte) to be withdrawn from Workshop
space and reserved for MacWorks; then re-boot as per normal.
From everything I've heard about *all* the Winnies, and the only one I've seen
perform on the Macintosh, the ProFile is a real WIN in terms of speed. I've
only got a L2/5, so can't afford more than a meg; if I had a 2/10 I'd probably
want to partition two meg for Mac.
