Hi, I have a question that some kind and knowledgeable soul out
there may be willing to answer; I'm still using the ancient
System 3.2/Finder 5.3 setup on my Mac+, and I'm told that the
current combination is 4.1/5.5. I don't want to stay behind the
times, but the old versions have served me well and I can easily
live without spinning hands on the clock cursor if it means adding
50K to my System Folders. What are the benefits vs. cost (in size)
of the current software? Believe it or not, I'm getting by with 1 Meg,
one 800K drive and RAMStart ("power user" I ain't ...) so memory &/or
disk space are important considerations for me. Thanks a lot - Eric.
