.Because it does harm.  You can't unmount removable media (floppies, CDs,
.hard disks) when using the Desktop Manager.  You can crash rather easily
.under some circumstances.  When you crash, you lose all comments.  It

Well, I have been using Desktop Manager (from AppleShare 3.1 I think, latest
version as far as I know) and I seem to be able to unmount diskettes with
no problems at all.  In fact, my HFS diskettes don't even have the DB and DF
files on them, even after I rebuild their desktop.  I do many dirty things
with my mac and crash it often, I don't have to reqbuild my desktop at all
(except for the first time, after puttig Desktop Manager in the system folder)
and so never lose comments.  I have noticed a REMARKABLE improvement in appl
launching speed since I started using it.  I am happy, so far.  I used an
older version of Desktop Manager once and had problems.  So far these 
problems don't seem to have appeared using the newer one.  If you can get it,
I would say try it out, I doubt you will be disapointed.  I am waiting for
an APPLE fix to Finder to remove the need for this "buggy" software.
