Hi,
I have discovered a rather odd bug that falls into the category of: "If it
bombs the mac then DON'T DO IT" and that is fine. But, the reason I am 
writing is 1)I am wondering whether others can reproduce it. and 2)I personally
belive that a computer should not Bomb when you do normal type things. eg. a 
novice user should be unable to bomb the machine at all.

So, here it is:
   If I copy a sound into the clipboard, then show the clipboard in the finder
I discovered that the "clean up window" option under the special menu is 
available. (Not greyed) choosing it causes "Divide By Zero". (which happens to
be unrecoverable).  

Please E-mail to me and I'll summarize. (Or not if this has been dealt with 
already and I just missed it.)

Thanks,
            Scott
