	My hard disk crashed a few days ago - cause unknown.  After
sorting out the damage only my boot partition was trashed.  I was very
happy because my disk is 300meg.  Anyway, I only lost about 6meg worth
of stuff.  Here's what I did.

1.  Formatted the disk with finder so it was mountable.
2.  Used SUM to recover the deleted files.

	Luckily, most of the files were in the System Folder so I did
not have to do much directory reconstruction.  Only a few of the files
were actually trashed and I even found some old files that had been
there before I re-partitioned my disk.

	I'm a happy mac-er, now, thanks in part to SUM.

	Just though I'd let you know.  I'm only a pleased customer.
