The only possible displeasure with the counter is that it might possibly write
into locations newly defined for use sicne System 6.0. A utility such as
BatteryBrain easily fixes _that_ problem, though. I like Photonix because
I can have it on my HD. When I reboot, I just hit Enter once to tall BB to
restore my BRAM and that's that.
