6.1b7 is VERY nice in handling those annoying windows that overlay the desktop,
BUT, as I found out the hard way, SuperMac's SuperSpool program DOES NOT work
with it.  

SuperMac is aware of the problem, according to their tech support, but they are
going to wait and see what happens when the final, release Multifinder appears.

Anyway, if you use SuperSpool, thought I'd save you some time before you go
hunting all over for the beta Multifinder.

[Small poke at SuperMac follows] I used that beta Multifinder for some months,
and NOTHING ELSE ever had a glitch under it, until SuperSpool came along...

Sigh.  The wonderful world of software incompatibilities.
