I downloaded it a while ago and found it to be very lacking in interfeace features, and the main reason I got rid of it was because I could not get the board to look anywhere near the way I like it. So I just said for about 5 meg, stuff this and deleted it on ther same day :-( Pity that Ed cannot put his current setup into a windows environment, cause that would be perfect and make it one of the most sort after programs on my list. I think a big mistake, find a better interface.
