|*************** GOOD NEWS SECTION *************
|This time I would like to recommend MultiDesk from
|CodeHead Software. Charles Johnson is the one bright
|star in the ST universe and MultiDesk is marvelous.
|MD allows you an unlimited number od DAs. It runs as a 
|DA and has menus to allow you to bundle different groups
|of DAs and load them. And it works with the SLM804 Diablo
|Emulator. A great utility if you use a lot of DAs.
|************************************************

Yes, I also have MultiDesk and it comes in handy from time to time, my
favorite aspect is not having to reboot just because I forgot an accessory. 

But, my reason for posting is to suggest that there are many "bright stars 
in the ST universe". I could suggest maybe a dozen or two quality developers 
for the ST, but you get the point. There are a number of *really*good*programs* 
available! (And I'm not thinking of games, either!)
