   If your using V1.3 Kick and a auto boot device (like CBM's A2090A), then
   your safe from the current rash of floppy viruses. Why? Well the 2090A
   boots from ROM's and I don't think a virus can infect them :-)

   As for wedgeing one into other bootable devices (ram drive(s) - networks),
   well thats possible.
