Well after a long discussion with myself, and a little one with my wife I
ordered Shredder 6 from Convekta. As I understand on the servicepack download
site so is it the same upgrade to make this interface to use the new CB-uci
adapter. Also Shredder is pluggable into CA.
Well I have to prove that I now and then still manage to get out of the
Data-room :)
