Really?  WriteNow is incompatible with the Classic?  I've run both WriteNow
2.0 and 2.2 on my 4meg Classic, under both System 6.0.7 and 7.0b1/b4, using
just about every diferent kind of INIT configuration, and haven't had any
problems with it.

What, specifically, are the incompatibilities you mention?
