I just got my copy of Rebel Century today and installed it. I had high hopes from what I read and from the screen-shots. However, I mis-read the ads for it b/c I thought it was a windows program. I was wrong. Just another ugly DOS-like GUI. Can't minimize. Can't re-size. I hate this interface. The font is ugly. Maybe I can change this? The user manual is difficult to use. The database search was slow and so far I have not been able to figure out how to do much with it. The menus only respond to my mouse if I hold the mouse button down for about 2 seconds. Overall, I have to say that compared to the much maligned CM7K, this program stinks. I opened up CM7K, installed it and have had no problem figuring out how to use any of the features. Plus, the GUI is great. Sure, there are a few small bugs, but nothing really bad. Does the Rebel DOS-like environment and all the other things I mentioned bug anyone but me? Tony
