Hey Tom:

I hope we get back to normal weather soon. This is bad SD weather. Unless you're from Iowa and miss a midwestern Xmas.

I went back and looked at an old installer I kept, because I changed the name of the zip file, but I have no way of telling what version it is. Even when running the installer, it never mentioned what version it was about to install. I finally cancelled before the point of no return, and before I entered the great unknown.

To me, that is sorta shoddy. Why not name your files at the developer end for their respective versions and make them all available, so we can go back to a 'working copy' if needed?

Luckily, I have an old version installed on my OS 9 partition. It works much better. I may have to boot back into 9 for a while to get proper operation again. I'd like you to take a look at the log from that OS 9 installation :

If you have any idea what version I am looking at here, I'd be shocked.
