Apple released5xxx-6xxx Floppy Fix. This is for slow mounting of floppy disks under Mac OS 7.6, 7.6.1 and 8 for 52xx, 53xx, 62xx and 63xx Macs that exhibit the issue.

I would like to take this opportunity to announce the creation of a site dedicated to one of the intriguing options in the new Mac OS 8: Contextual Menus. It seems that third party software developers have started to release CM additions allowing users to make their Control-clicks much more powerful.

These new tools were so cool that a few graphic artists and web designers got together to make a free one stop place on the internet for all your contextual menu tools needs. The result was the CM Central web site .

From Robert Mathews:
"Tiger Technologies has just released version 1.2.2 of Window Monkey. Window Monkey is a Macintosh shareware program that adds customizable background patterns to Finder windows and gives users a handy window navigation menu.

The updated version includes fixes for conflicts with PopupFolder and the Japanese version of the Mac OS, cosmetic improvements for multiple-monitor computers, and other bug fixes. The update is completely free to registered users."
