I am using Suitcase with Multifinder 1.0 with no problems. The only restriction (it's documented in the Suitcase manual with respect to Switcher and Servant) is that you can't open new font or da files while the multitasking software is running. Doesn't bother me much. It would bother me less if you could quit from Multifinder without rebooting, but you can't... Apple: please consider this for a future release. You may be hoping that it will become less necessary to exit Multifinder as more software becomes compatible, but I think there will always be some programs and some system level operations which want the whole machine. For example, standalone backup. Stew Rubenstein Cambridge Scientific Computing, Inc. UUCPnet: seismo!harvard!rubenstein CompuServe: 76525,421 Internet: rubenstein@harvard.harvard.edu MCIMail: CSC
