[X Newbies] Norton SystemWorks 3.0 for Mac?

[David Crandon]

Yeah, I forgot to mentiion. I don't actually install it either. I run 
it from the disc as well.

I've found Norton Speed Disk to be effective. I notice a bigger 
increase in speed when i use it for OSX than when I used it for OS9. 
But we are not talking any huge gains here...
