yep, it happened here to :-(

We had to reinstall from our AA, the 10.0 version of syslib. However
I'm informed that the system runs slower with this old syslib (any
comments out there ??) - it sure seems like it does.

Somebody has *really* goofed on this one  ...... I hope it all
gets properly rectified when we get (at long last) REAL compilers
for the 10000.

BTW has anyone seen the Omniback/8mm tape thingie for the 10000 yet ??
We are waiting for delivery on ours so I'm keen to find out about others
experiences with it.
