[comp.sys.mac.programmer] New System and the Desktop

Use of "Desktop Manager" to speed up access to icons, etc. in the Finder
seems to work.  I am using on my Mac II right now.  I have never had any
problems.

It is NOT officially sanctioned (whatever that means) by Apple.

The slow Desktop file problem is certainly acknowledged by the guys
working on the Finder, and someday, a better solution will appear.  As
to when?  I have no idea.

As to where to get the "Desktop Manager" file?  Well, the only official
channel is to buy the AppleShare server product.  I'm sure you can think
of other ways....
