I have had access to iTools for over a year now, and never used it. It is just tht it is there, it is free, I should be able to use it.

You can move stuff to the trash using shortcut commands, so the actual "can" can be anywhere. I downloaded a nice little shareware program called FruitMenu that lets you build your own Apple Menu any way you like. > snip... get it back to being a MACINTOSH interface as opposed to a > Windows/UNIX interface. Yes the Mac looks more like a Windows machine every day. But, then again, a Windows machine looks more like a Mac every day. In a couple of years we will not be able to tell the user interfaces apart. But, with that solid UNIX base we Mac users won't have to spend our time reinstalling software once a week. I LIKE OSX. I will probably convert my 9600. And, I understand Ryan is working on software to get it working on the Powerbook 3400 (which I have). Hopefully, some day it will be workable on our c600 too. If you really hate OSX - delet it. You can run just OS 9.2.2 Nancy -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
