To be fair, ECS looks like a winner, and once they get their
current issues in hand, I'll probably be buying. They do seem to
be in it for the long run.

Who's making bug reports?
<BLAM>
Any more bug reports? <g>

Yup. The bleeding edge is just too...well, just too damned bloody
for me.

Fergit that "winders" noise. MonopolySoft's latest "offering" is
unbelievable in the level of hubris...snookering the lemmings
into yet ANOTHER "upgrade" round before they even have the first
fixpak out, AND making it a subscription scam, AND using it to
take over the digital media delivery industry AND the sheep still
bleet approval and nose up to the butt in front of em, cash in
hand, READY TO PAY TO BE SHEARED. Makes you despair for your
species, really it does...
