I just got SoftPC and am rumming it on a Mac II with 4M of memory.  It takeover 90 sec to quit, whether one is just closing it, or transferring to the finder
in Multifinder.  Same problem if I ditch my INITs or use Finder.  I have
done nothing further, and the company has not responded to my query.
