It was announced on CompuServe last night that Letraset has acknowledged a
pretty nasty bug in Ready Set Go 4.5. It seems that Superclock (or any INIT
that plays with the menubar in the background) causes problems with their
memory management and will cause RSG to crash.
This is a bug I'd been arguing with them over for months before I gave up.
I'm glad they finally found it. Now I don't need to worry about hosing my
hard disk under deadline again (I hope). If you're using RSG 4.5, better
plan on keeping an eye on your INITs.
(now, the question is *why* this is true, and what they're doing that could
be sensitive to it.... But that's another argument completely).
