Eric and all who are interested,

I have spoken a number of times to the Tech Support people at Dayna
(the company that produces DOS mounter) and they have said that there
are no plans as yet (4/9/92) to make DOS mounter v.3.0.1 compatible with
System 7 tuneup.  It works in the untuned version.

If Insignia's product is compatible with tuneup, then the choice is clear.
The Dayna people bordered on rude when I pointed out the problem.
