A couple of points with regard to the New ImageWriter15 Driver.
1) The new Imagewriter driver doesn't seem to like the 0.7 version
of MDS.
Don't try to use it with Macsbug (or Maxbug) installed.
Trying to print anything will blow you into the debugger with
a nasty address error (Error#=$21512151).
2) Don't use it unless you have a lot of free space around
on your system disk. This time event printing in 'Standard'
mode killed my Mac.
A word on Desk Ornaments: Be careful when installing some of the PD ornaments.
Some people are using the RESids that are reserved for Apple's standard DAs.
This can be a drag when you find out that most (if not all) versions of
the Desk Accessory Mover dont know how to deal with the RESids that are
already in use, and you can wind up with two DAs with the same name & ID, and
neither of them working. Also, the DAM doesn't know about private (owned)
resources, and won't remove things like uriah's dialog box, etc; so you can
have lots of space taken by resurces that noone is using...
