That was my impression as well, I was just making a different point.

For a bigger disk on a real C64, you'd want a 1581 (I used a C64,
daisywheel printer and 1581 to write papers in grad school in the
early 90's). That also allows 288 files in a single directory. So I'd
assume if you were looking for a disk image format, that'd be the best
bet.

Actually, you could use a 16 meg DNP to run it if you wanted. uIECs
can run that just fine. Is it that it is running a JAVA emulator or
just calling JAVA from the users (browser side) computer? Anyway, I
used it (browsed to it) for the past year and it works great. Really,
don't see any speed issues but then again, he keeps the browser page
streamlined.

Whether its Actionscript or the Javascript port ... its a program
uploaded to the viewer's browser to run. Anything that can serve a
page can serve Javascript.

*I've* got speed issues, but that's because I'm browsing from a
Windows box designed for XP but running Vista ... its not the fault of
the other side.

On 16meg DNP's, never had a CMD hard drive, don't know nothing about
it, that's another thing to add to the to-do list.

I do no have a CMD hard drive, but Brain's uIEC SD-Card Reader
supports the DNP format and it is pretty cheep. A LOT cheeper then
trying to find and buy a CMD Hard Drive.

The problem, I know have is the main java prg resides in the route,
but the kernals and drives are in sub folders. There doesn't seem
to bbe a way to path them properly properly on a uIEC device once your
in a disk image. Is DNP diferent? Can I be in a disk image and setup
folders inside of the image? basically have the route with c64.java
then a /game folder, /kernal rom and drive folder, and a /com
folder? That the java can make calls to.
