Gee.  Sounds almost like the Diagonistics diskettes that were shipped
with the older IBM-PCs.  They even did cool things like testing your
hard disk, your FLOPPY disk, keyboard, and monitor.

But of course, the Macintosh user is supposed to be shielded from that ugly
stuff.  That's why Apple has Dealer Support :-) (or :-(, depending on your
experience with them)

Maybe Apple should be suffering from IBM-envy.  Naaaaaah.
