. Has anyone out there used the new Version 5.0 of the Norton Utilities?
What new functions (if any) have been added? My specific interest is this:
I'm looking ahead to the time when my hard disk will start to hiccup, and
had more-or-less decided that the combination of SpinRite and Mace Utilities
will give me everything I need. I don't need a DOS shell, so something like
PC Tools would be partly a waste. How does Norton v5 compare with the
Mace + SpinRite combination?
