Um, where does that put those of us with good old Lisa's (aka Mac XL)?   I
didn't even find out about the XL-to-Mac+ upgrade until it was a month too
late. So it looks like I'm stuck with Finder 5.0 running under System 2.0,
unless someone has managed to get newer versions to work on the Lisa (as 
you may have already guessed, the Apple dealer around here is pretty pathetic.)
While I'm at it, has anyone heard if HFS will ever work on the Lisa?
