I use PowerStation (Software Supply) with DiskTop 3.01 (CE Software) as
my Finder repleacement.  RAM and disk space aren't a problem for me
with a 5 mb Mac II with 40 mb hd (sorry to rub it in :-), but these
two win for ease of use and functionality.  You can rename PowerStation
to Finder and it seems to work fine.  PowerStation's current version
is buggy under  MultiFinder, but a bug fix version is in the works.
DiskTop 3.01 works fine with MultiFinder.
