[Noon 11/26/99] Startup Doubler v2.5.2: From author Marc Moini, "Startup Doubler makes for quicker startups. Its software acceleration compensates for sub-optimal disk performance to make extensions, control panel, the Finder and startup applications load faster. Save time each time you startup your Mac! Those seconds spent waiting while your Mac starts add up to a lot of time. Startup Doubler usually makes startups 20% to 50% faster, depending on the performance of your startup disk and the number of Extensions, Control Panels and Startup Items in your System. Version 2.5.2, released today, fixes a bug which caused versions 2.5 and 2.5.1 to sometimes crash at the end of startup. Minor other improvements are also featured. Startup Doubler runs on Mac OS 9.0 and previous versions (going back to System 7.0), and supports multiple extension sets. It is shareware, so you can try it for free then buy only if you like it. The shareware fee is $20, registered users of previous versions may upgrade for free. You may download Startup Doubler or get more info from marcmoini.com." [A short testimonial: I have used SD since v1.0 and it saves me loads of time with my many startups and restarts.--Bill]
