I admit that one cannot conclude anything based on one single test. Needless to say, there are many questions you can ask regarding the test I'm referring to. Having said that I still find this single testresult very interesting and that's why I decided to post it here in this Forum. The next Toga-version might be a small improvement compared to Toga II 1.1a and it might be a big one. I hope the latter :-) Best regards Per
