In response to the question "Is there any way to change the `Welcome to
Macintosh' startup message back to normal after it has been changed?":

Huh?

The StartupScreen will replace the dialog box completely, not just
alter the text in it (although it is possible to make a StartupScreen
that looks just like the normal one save for the message).  It is
possible, however, to actually change the message that appears at
startup.

This message is stored in the boot blocks, I believe, although I have
no idea how to get at it (there is a program in sumex that purports to
let you change it, but the program is so old that I just don't trust
it with my boot blocks...).

Anyone know how to change that message?
