I replaced Stars with Moire, because I like Moire better.  However, I am using
MultiFinder and I am experiencing some oddness.

If I leave my Macintosh sitting with just Finder running, Moire's movement of
the pattern is very jumpy.  (It moves, stops, moves, stops, moves, stops...)

If I leave my Macintosh sitting with Finder and anything else running, it's
okay.  For example, I've taken to keeping Alarm Clock running in the upper
right hand corner of the screen.  When Moire finally comes up, it runs
smoothly.

Is there a more recent version running around that fixes this?

P.S. -- I got the latest copy of PC Week, complete with an interesting article
about Apple delivering it's version of Unix and something looked wrong to me.
Well, PC Week has, for years, labelled itself as "The National Newspaper of
IBM Standard Microcomputing", even though they had nice reviews of HyperCard,
dBase Mac, Fourth Dimension, and regularly feature articles on Apple.  Well,
this week they have just started labelling themselves as "The National
Newspaper of Corporate Microcomputing".  So no one can gripe when they run
articles on the Macintosh anymore...
