A flyer is as good as it gets with IDE. I didn't have access to one when
I reviewed the Plextor, so it was impossible to say how much better, but
I'd expect it to be twice as fast.

extract the description from the Aminet readme. I'll take another look
at it, although it would mean not all programs get a description.
