The kitty litter thing I can understand. Clay, wood chips, hey that's better than the carpet. People will pay for that. The only problem I can see is can it buy the shelf space in the first place.

The software now that one is harder to see. I am having a lot of difficulty seeing people pay, what is it $79.95, for a program that lists the programs on their pc. I'm having trouble understanding the value added here. So it seems to me what is claimed here is not that there is any software that is going to actually go in and fix the code, only going to find programs and see if by chance they are in their database of names and addresses of computer companies.

The idea of patches seems a little bogus to me because most programs have so many versions that most companies, I would think, would want to upgrade people to the latest version to fix Y2K problems as well as all the other problems that may have come to light in their software. I just don't see software publishers providing that many patches that they have no idea or not whether this 11th hour program is going to install correctly. Because gee, if the patch doesn't work and the program crashes, I'll bet these 11th hour guys just send them to the original developer anyway.

I looked at their site. Strange that there is no way to buy it, yet when you try to download it, a password dialog pops up. Looks slick, but I can't find the beef. I guess it still must be in development.

Oh, and TEDennis I just had to post. I couldn't leave that #800 sitting there without my name on it.
