kyle point taken.
as i am doing likewise with my point of view. so its moot. we both agree based on our experiences that a good piece of utility software is what you make it. some have issues with norton and wont use it. i have had issues with other software and wont use them. if i cant trust the reliablity of something i wont use it unless i can afford the time to clean up the mess it makes. i have used diskwarrior on an ibook and had no success. and afterwards i found errors on my ibook that forced me reformat it to fix it. i have run norton on same ibook and not had a problem. did diskwarrior cause my problem? i cant say. did norton cause the same problem. no.. does this mean norton is better then disk warrior no. i have more expereince with norton and its mainy versions then with diskwarrior. i will take your comments under advisement and test run diskwarrior more on my 400 machines at work and see if i can notice a performance difference. i have heard that the plus optimizer section of diskwarrior is supposed to be a far cry better then speed disk. only time will tell. once i have adequitely tested disk warrior will i be able to stand behind it as you do. but for now i will contine to use norton as my primary repair software. as all of my tech freinds who work on macs still have confidence in it as well. so for now we will agree to have a difference of opinion. neither one in my opinion is wrong. just different sides of the fence. i have learned to tip toe around a peice of new software until i feel i can trust its doing the job to help me in my technical repair field. none of us has the time to repair a problem that a utility software makes when it is supposed to be aiding us. thanks for listening all.\ Brian. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
