Two questions, completely unrelated:

  Does anyone have any idea why a MacBottom hard disk (bought about a year ago)
would appear to Apple's Disk First Aid as a non-HFS volume? I'm guessing that
perhaps PCPC (the manufacturer) has some weirdo friver software or something.
Send me mail if you know what the deal is or can help.

Next Question: 
  
  Would someone please tell me if Dollars and $ense version 1.x has some
incompatabilities with current system software (6.0.4). I seem to recall
something a long while back but can't remember the exact nature of the problem
if in fact there is one. Also, before you suggest upgrading to something 
like a more recent version, I'm already working on that. I just want to confirm
or deny this stuff in the back of my head. However, I certainly wouldn't 
mind a good description (better than Monogram's ad) of what the latest D&S 
does different/better/new. All I know right now is that it HAS to be better
than the non-Mac interface on the 1.x version.

Thanx in advance,
