I have what I believe is called "System Tools 6.0" which includes a Finder numbered 6.0 and a System numbered 4.2. Are we in fact talking about System version 4.2/Finder version 6.0 when we say "System 6.0"--where the "6.0" refers to the whole package--or is there indeed a much newer release of the System file whose version number is 6.0?!?!?!? Also, I'd like to add my name to the list of folks who would like to strip out all unnecessary stuff from the latest system (be it 4.2 or 6.0) to run on a MacPlus. The complete file is rather huge. Signed, confused but happy.
