I have to agree with you Randy.  I've never had any of the HFS
problems that Nathan ranted about.  Not on HFS floppies and
not on the HFS partitions I formatted using the IIGS.

There was a time when I wondered why I didn't have any of the
HFS problems mentioned.  Then I started noticing that the
very users reporting problems with HFS also had GUPP installed.
I never installed any of Nathan's stuff because I refused to
support someone who attacked me for no valid reason.  Then
again, I don't think even Nathan would actually put code inside
GUPP to sabatoge the HFS FST....right?  ;-)
