I was unable to get the copy of system 5.0.3, which was sent to me through
E-mail to work.  I decided to wait until it became available at the local
Macintosh dealer (who happen to carry Apple IIs also).

Last week, I bought the new Beagle Bros Platinum Paint (all others pale
in comparison, there are a few bugs but it's better than any of the others
I've seen - honest!).  Since it was bundled with 5.0.3, I decided to look at
the toolbox and check out the difference.

I copied the tools into my toolbox on 5.0.2 (on my hard drive), I then copied
the ImageWriter Printer Driver into the drivers folder.  I know that people
say you shouldn't do this because of the new resource forks and all, but my
GS has never worked better!  I can easily switch between two drives instead of
going through all four, my AppleWorks GS printouts have never been nicer,
even at large point sizes I have yet to have a problem (knock on wood).

I don't know if this is the solution some of you are looking for or if I have
just been lucky enough not to come across any problems yet.

I hope this helps!
