Subject: InstantInit 1.1 - disk formatting utility


InstantInit is a very small application designed to initialize disks in
the shortest possible time, which ranged from 1 to 3 seconds in tests
that we conducted. Your actual performance time may vary, but it'll be
fast! No more waiting forever to initialize your disks -- InstantInit
offers virtually "instant" initialization!

InstantInit requires a Macintosh Plus or later with a FDHD or SuperDrive
and System Software 7.0 or later. InstantInit is a fat binary
application, which means that it will run normally on a 68k Macintosh,
as well as accelerated native on a Power Macintosh!

The latest version of InstantInit (1.1) includes the capability to
change the default name of an initialized disk.
