Not yet.  That image of DiskSalv 2.00 was from a very early prototype that
wasn't fully functional.  I have one now that's fully functional, though not
complete, and crashes alot (Intuition code, not the disk recovery stuff).  I
estimate the disk recovery logic, which is much improved, would do at least
20% better than DiskSalv V1.42.  It's not ready for release or even outside
testing yet.  What can I say, it's been a very, very, very busy year...
