- Waitaminute. I got an INIT called MMInit. Is this the thing you're talking
- about? I remember the README file said it was supposed to fix a bug in the ROMs
- of a bunch of computers (including the si-mine). It seems kind of recent.
- There are color icons in it, but I can't be sure of the date. Is it bad to
- have? I haven't noticed any problems and have had it for several weeks. Have
- the problems been fixed in the system software?
