[ many good reasons for adding Chooser to Control Panel ...] One reason I like Chooser as a separate DA is that it's much faster to come up than Control Panel: 2.1 seconds vs. 7.5 seconds (on a Mac II). Another is that there's a clear differentiation between the two: Chooser affects network-related resources, while Control Panel concerns the user's Mac only. The only real objection I have to Chooser being separate is the DA slot it uses, and that is something that will no longer be a problem, RSN, right Steve? -- Maurice Weitman ..!{dual,hplabs,lll-crg,ptsfa,glacier}!well!mo | <- this is not a pipe POBox 10019 Berkeley, CA 94709 (415)549-0280 Quote: "What a revoltin' development this is."
