Hi !

  just thought I would try to turn people's attention from all this praise
of Microsoft !  ;-)
  I installed the upgrade from version 11.12 to 11.13 of White Knight last
night, and have since had to return to using version 11.12 !  The new
version would NOT work in the background very well - and in fact made
using any application impossible !
  With White Knight 11.13 downloading a file in CKermit, I switched to
the Finder and attempted to copy some files to a floppy. The ONLY way the
Finder would continue to copy was if I kept clicking on the Copy dialogue
box everytime the drive stopped writing.  Next, I tried to decompress a
file using StuffIT - the same thing.  I had to keep clicking on the
progress indicator to keep things going. I have since tried this with any
other tasks, and the new White Knight just does not want to "share"
processor time without continuous mouse reminders ! I re-installed the
Finder and System and the White Knight - to no avail !
  Anyone else seen these problems ? I get the same thing even with
extensions turned off. I am using an 8 meg IIcx with Sys 7 and Tuner 1.1.
  Any help appreciated !  (and no, 32-bit was NOT turned on)
