Suitcase II version 1.2.9 is System 7.0-compatible. (Version 1.2.8
says it is, but it *isn't*.)  You can get a program to update any
earlier version of Suitcase II to 1.2.9 from any ftp site worth its
bits.

System 7.0 makes it easier to live without Suitcase II, but Suitcase
II is still useful in a few ways -- you can use fonts by opening a
suitcase in less time than it takes to say "World-Wide Developers'
Conference" rather than dragging gobs of font files into and out of
your System file, and Suitcase II still supports fkey suitcases where
System 7.0 still doesn't.
