Well I listed all the specifics, in my first posts on this matter, and as for
hating CM, I have been the loudest on this CM7K piece of crap. Take a look at
the Gambitsoft news page and where it talks about a person who is the biggest
fan of CM even rubbishing it, that is me.

As for others writing stuff because they dislike the CM program, well I am sure
that they are there too. If you want to get more specific about the mess this
program made than what I have already stated, then go ask mindscape what the
hell they did to my system, cause I am damned if I know.

I have defended CM through think and thin, I said it would top the SSDF and
everyone laughed. I have seen bug in previous versions, but this is different,
this is more than mere bugs.
