I have been able to verify this behavior on 100% of my installations,
including several other installations by Apple employees on their
PowerBooks.
What happens, essentially, is:
* I configure the desktop with various reference folders, as well as
DropFolders. I also use Docking Maneuvers to enbale repositioning of the
Dock.
* I log out, and log back in. The Dock is back on the bottom, and all
folders that I had organized are lined up under the hard drive icon.
* Furthermore, switching between OS 9 and OS X results in getting my
Location Manager settings under OS 9 completely messed up, and my battery
indicator on the menu bar clock is disabled any time I switch back to OS 9
(because Classic's configuration does not support the Menu Bar Battery
indicator, and has the control panels election greyed out).
This last issue wouldn't be a big issue if the OS X battery indicator were
actually usable on an LCD screen (PowerBook), where the pale green is hardly
visible, even when squinting).
Any ideas?
