I think it was 1.6m or maybe 1.68m (I missed this one out in my original
post - it uses 21 s/t). Also some of those came with some funny filesystem
params (only 16 entries in the root directory, sometimes only 1 copy of
FAT, etc.)
I think MS were using 2.8 too, but most people had no drive capable reading
them. (Around here, atleast)
