[HM] Re: Freezes & Glitches

[Bob K]

I received today my Disk Warrior 3.0.1 and I ran it.  Success!  I am 
back on my G4!!!
(Had to work on my old little 333MHz iBook the past several days).

Well, My G4 started up fine, when I quit Disk Warrior, and so far so 
good.  I will
report recurrence, if any.
