Well, I may now be an employee of a company that has a "friendly"
relationship with SuperMac, but I wasn't when I got two free updates
from them just for reporting a (very slight) bug in DiskFit 1.3...
They've ALWAYS been very helpful to me.  I suspect your requests have
happened to fall on the wrong ears or have slipped through the cracks
somehow (I can't excuse it, but at least give them another chance).

Perhaps a call to their bigwigs would help.  Steve Edelman (a (the?)
founder of SuperMac) is always being pictured in magazines these days
with a smile on his face.  Maybe he likes being in the software
business and will give you some help?

To slightly reiterate: I REALLY DO RECOMMEND DiskFit and Network DiskFit
(we use them here at Apple).  Any support problems you're having should
be brought to the attention to someone in high places a SuperMac
(e.g., Mr. Edelman).  I hope they're interested in fixing your problem.

Hope this helps...
