[etc] Well, to answer the question in the subject, I personally am having fun with system 7. I do have things setup so I can bounce back to system 6.0.7 easily, for whatever things which do not work with system 7. I hate bouncing back to system 6.0.7 though, I'm getting used to the features of system 7 very quickly. I have now paused and reflected on the matter based on your article. I am annoyed that I need to get a new version of MPW. I am annoyed that I need to get a new version of Hypercard. I do find myself thinking about buying 4 more meg of RAM for my Mac IIci. All that said, it's still true that I'm having fun with system 7, and very much prefer it over system 6.0.7. I only use system 6.0.7 if I have to, and never use it because I want to. - - - - - - - - Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@rpi.edu or gad@eclipse.its.rpi.edu ITS Systems Programmer (handles NeXT-type mail) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy NY USA
