Has anyone heard >of a >problem related to this? Not so far from here, in the Sierras, bears have been known to get a claw behind the top of a car window frame & prise the whole window downwards and outwards. It can take them seconds to prise the door off a car ..... Bunch of guys here at Apple came over from Singapore & spent the weekend camping down in Yosemite. Bears got into their camp & ate all their food. The guys were huddled in their tents all night, listening to the mayhem outside! 8-) Pete C -- Peter Cassidy, pcassidy@apple.com Sr. Test Dev.
