Thanks. I will download it and let you know as soon as possible. Is this
the Paris release? Also, another question: The nps figure given on the
Tech page generally says 2500-3000 for my P150, but what I have taken to
be the total nodes processed for current ply, at the bottom, seems to
increment at 1/3 to 1/4 of that speed. Which is correct?

Thanks again,
