<<I just uploaded the PPC Interrupt Extension to the mSystem folder. Apple said it's suppose to fix a bug in Mac OS 7.5.5 which seems to effect most PPC bases systesm. I don't think I've run into this bug, but anything which improves reliability is good.>>

This is a MUST HAVE for anybody with a PowerPC Mac or Mac-Compatible. It really seems to have decreased the weird freezes some of the internet applications caused (like Netscape). Netscape is still by far the program which causes my mac to crash (about every 3rd day or so), but it seems that the system is a bunch more responsive in general.

<<Kaleidoscope 1.0 has also passed beta testing. The new version seems to have a few different color schemes. Pretty neat, but I find some of the schemes hard on my eyes.>>

I just installed this extension/control panel a few minutes ago....It's AWESOME. The system is WA Y more responsive since I've installed this. It has to be at least twice as fast as Aaron, which really seemed to hit the system hard.
For those of you who are tired of Espy Sans, I have my system font set to Gill Sans now. It really works quite well, in regard to spacing, etc.

Definitely worth the download!
