I've been using After Dark, can't recall which version I was using, latest
one with the lawnmower man module and the space game. I turned off the
INIT with my INIT manager cause it caused a lockup when I used the RESTART
or SHUTDOWN and then try to RESTART. I just turn off the monitor when not
using the computer for any length of time while in AMAX mode. I also found
that Pyro (rather early version) caused my MAC II ci slow down, and lose
parts of files when printing Postscript to my Varityper 4300P laser
imager. It caused lots of headaches until I turned it off. My ex-partner
wanted it ON, but I tried to explain running the thing full tilt,
demanding as much screen refresh as the program could muster from the CPU
caused the system to "cough" and lose portions of the data going over
Appletalk, since a MAC can't truly multi-task, something has to give when
the CPU gets overloaded with work.
