Hi all!

  I be a might confused about the new system 4.1 and Finder 5.5.  I
noticed in the System Folder a bunch of new files.  I realize that
these are configuration files for the control panal.  What I am
wondering is what do these control?  Ie.  What is the purpose of
"General"; how does "Keyboard" differ from "Key Layout", etc.?  What
are the options for replacing these with other things, if any?  Can
anyone at Apple (or anywhere) either post the whole wad about these or
arrange docs to be sent to me or anything???

Much obliged.

PS.  Will the HDBackup application in the Finder 5.5 utilities backup
any harddisk or just Apple's?  If so, will it run under pre-S4.1,F5.5
systems?
