I just received Apple's Allegro Common Lisp tonight (1.2.2) and installed
it on my 2.5Mb Mac SE.  I set its MultiFinder partition to 1800.

My problem is this: It crashes the system ROYALLY when I have SuperClock! 3.5
is installed.  Any ideas on which program's fault it may be?  SuperClock has a
clean record on my system.

My first question is: If I get CommonLOOPS, how much overhead does this
add--in terms of space and runtime--to running Allegro CL programs?  Do I then
need 1.6Mb to load Allegro CL plus another 400K to load LOOPS?

Second: When will the manuals--which still have references to Coral Lisp
and 38 Addenda pages--be updated?

And lastly, I just heard that Apple will be releasing 1.3 next month...are
there any rumors about the upgrade cost (I hope that since I bought after
the upgrade announcement that I will be "grandfathered" in)?
