I'll join the hesitaters at least until 7.1 comes out.  I've been burned
once too often by new system software.  Sys 7.0's interesting, but be

I don't see how changing the interface to the control panel from what
it's been for, what, seven years? will be beneficial.  I found it
confusing.  Yes, let's take the ability to change system level
