Subject: Utility pkg opinions wanted


Folks over in PC Land have great things to say about
Norton Utilities 5.0 -- except for the documentation.

Any opinions regarding Norton Utilities for the Mac?
Any other recommendations for disk de-fragmenters,
file recovery, drive testing, etc?


Thanks,

Apart from the fact that not all of it works under System 7 (e.g.
Disk Doctor), I find it great! I have no idea what the
documentation is like - the interface is very well designed, so I
never needed to look at the manual.
