- I get tired of reading responses like this. Stacker 2.0 is a solid
- product, one which I have pushed and prodded and poked and tried every
- way I could think of to bring it down. I'm not just a PC user, I'm a PC
- torturer, and I could not make it fail unless what I did would have made
- DOS itself fail, too.
-
- Stacker is a fine product which is nevertheless blamed first whenever
- some stupid user makes a mistake and loses some data.
