There has been feedback in mail and publicly regarding my harsh words
about MultiFinder.  I was partially in error.  It is true that MultiFinder
will interfere with the SPECTRE 128 functions.  It is also true that my
company's publications department had nothing but headaches using Multi-
Finder.

A kind spokesman from Apple informed me about MultiFinder, and it seems
that some problems were related to applications incompatibilities and
perhaps bugs in the system release 6.0.0 from Apple. System 6.0.2 along
with the current release of the applications in question DO work on
other Mac systems, and MultiFinder is no longer suspect. Back to what IS
important: MultiFinder is NOT recommended by Dave Small for SPECTRE 128
(release 1.75 anyways).  It was specifically in a "doesn't work" list I
got with my 1.75 release.  There didn't seem to be much hope in it ever
working, but who knows?
