MacPaint 'features'

Last night I found two 'features' in MacPaint V 1.5.

1) If you try to print and you don't have an ImageWriter file on the disk, 
MacPaint complains that "You have an old printer driver.  Get a new System."
Most other programs under the new System can detect and properly deal with a
missing printer driver.

2) If you hold down Option and Command while selecting Quit from the menu, the
Mac ejects the disk and reboots!  This can be handy...... UNLESS you do it by
accident (like I did)!
