While working with the current beta release of Multifinder on a 2-Meg. Mac II, I found that while copying diskettes (just a single floppy drive), the Finder didn't read in the entire diskette at one time (800K diskette with about 50 files), but caused me to do a couple of disk swaps. Now while this isn't really "terrible", considering that the Finder was the only "application" funning at the time, and there was about 1.4Megabyte in the "largest free block", it seems that it should have done everything at once. Also, occasionally, for no good reason, it would give me a "not enough memory" error and I'd have to reboot. This isn't a complaint, of course, as this is Beta software, but a bug report for you, Apple. Overall, GREAT work! (Now, if you'll only make it automatically preemptive...) Jeff Harrow (617)264-5128
