One of the Mac Sysadmins at my high school was INIT-happy.  Boot time
on his Mac II was AT LEAST five minutes and the icons on his 13" color
screen went on for, I swear, three and a half lines.  They all peacefully
coexisted and he had the most jazzed-up (albiet useless to use if you're
in a hurry to get started) Mac I had ever seen.  You name it, he had it:
BackDrop, Kolor, OnCue, Animated Cursor, After Dark, Suitcase, TOPS,
hierDA, GateKeeper, Fortune, Super Clock, etc.

Don't even ask about the number of fonts and DAs...
