'The Fritz interface is terrible' etc. Yes and no IF you think that probes compalins are unseful. It is a matter of degree. If half and half say that, OK, but if -by example- 90% thinks something isd bad, them something is not good, right? > >It's a fairly simple matter. Vote with your pocketbook.

Personally, we seem to be making >much ado about nothing. Perhaps we should wait until a program actually *exists* >before complaining or praising it? Same as above. We should wait if we cannot do otherwise, but if we can, why not to do something. I repeat: is a matter of degree. If I am the only guy complaining, OK, I will shut my mouse, but maybe is not the case and Ed can get some profit to know it in advance. And for that it is neccesary everyone interested in the issue give his opinion. Truly yours fernando> > >Chris
