    ... I'm doing that right now ... seems to work fine. I've been jumping
    back and forth between sys 6 & 7 all day with no ill effects.

   ... one thing to note, System 7 creates a bunch 'o' files on your
   System 6 disk - scared the piss outa me when I first started under
   7.0 ( lots of disk activity ) !!  Didn't seem to hurt anything though.
