You have made a very good case for buying Cassidy and Greene's "Conflict Catcher". With OS 9.1 I consider it a necessity. An hour or so running tests and creating sets will make you much more productive and save your blood pressure. On this PCP 240 W/Sonnet G3 500 running OS 9.1, the keyboard control Panel "Options" was assigned Function key F10 to open Conflict Catcher. I've been using "Conflict Catcher" since System 7. Discover a new feature every couple of weeks.

No problems. A PTP 225 running a PowerLogix G4 450 .... Had lots of problems. THINK, I've finally got them sorted out. IMNSHO it's hard to go wrong with Sonnet products.
