[Ham-Mac] Norton's Systemworks 3.0 and Tiger

[Rick Prather]

I think you will find that the majority of people "damning" TT Pro  
are the ones that got a copy of TT with their AppleCare agreement and  
it was months before Apple warned anyone that that version should not  
be used with Tiger.  A lot of people messed themselves up by running  
the non-Tiger version after they installed Tiger.

Norton has been a problem since OSX came out and they stopped  
supporting it.  The horror stories about Norton Utilities for Mac  
have been all over the boards for years.

Two lessons learned here were:

1.  Apple can be inexcusably slow in warning of a problem.

2.  Never use a utility that you haven't checked to make sure it is  
compatible with your new operating system.
