    Does _II Alive_ go into any details, or does it simply state
"SwitchIt and GraphicWriter III are incompatible"?  GWIII was one of the
few programs which did *not* work with very early betas of SI, but it
was quickly fixed and I've been using it ever since.  Any bugs or
crashes I've encounted have been attributable to the less-than-optimal
job DataPak originally did on GraphicWriter.  I hope SevenHills
concentrates on updating their existing products soon.  GW needs one
very badly.

    BTW, who wrote the review?  I understand _II Alive_ accepts reviews
from just about anyone (like mail-in submissions), so the information
presented may not be completely factual.
