With a street price of around $50., I think the convenience of a resource 
manager such as Suitcase outweighs the expense. But then, I'm not trying 
to sell anyone on it, I was just answering a question.

Actually, you can make suitcases of DAs, fonts, and Fkeys.

Perhaps. Personally, I think Suitcase, and other resource managers like it, 
will go through some changes, but I believe they are far from becoming a 
part of history.
