Plus you get Pyro! (by Billy, as fate would would have it) which is the
current state-of-the-art blanker, and according to the Suitcase manual
(I haven't tried it yet) you can also bundle "snd " resources with
Suitcase with a ONE WORD mod to something in the System Folder. And a
coherent manual by Robert Wiggins.  Buy it.

I'm about 2500 miles from ComputerWare and they're my local store --
their shipping and inventory control is first-rate.  Forget Apple dealers.]
There are horror stories of dealers CHARGING for Apple system upgrades, etc.
Just sh*t-can the dealer concept and deal with efficient, courteous, honest
guys like CW.  Get your upgrades from friends.

The simple fact (the fact is unbiased, though I'm not) is that the
Byte article was _extremely_ poor journalism and equally poor
experimental science -- it is impossible from the information in
the article to recreate the test conditions and verify Byte's
"results".

_did_ study enough philosophy of science to recognize complete
crap when it jumps out of Byte magazine....)
