Kick-off Launcher

Hidey Ho Neighbors,

Haven't been around much lately, but school is letting out soon and it
seems progress is picking up for R14.

Kick-Off has been causing problems on and off for my desktops since
inception. I did quite a bit of work last year to simplify it, but now
the hard-drive parsing (the most ugly piece of code i've seen) has
caused problems again. This is due to a questionable amount of parsing
doesn't seem to work correctly everwhere.

I digress.

A good solution would be to 1) remove kickoff since it's unlikely that
it is used, and doesn't keep in the style of trinity and port the cool
features of kickoff into the original kicker panel, if there are any.
2) integrate tde's hw library with kickoff so isn't relying on a bad
hack

I'd be willing to do both, what do you guys think?

Calvin
