Mr. Andy Thomas, <<Does MSFT ever describe their own programs as "persnickity," or even "feature bloated" or "slow?" I imagine not. If this is the case I call this being dishonest. You MSFT cheerleaders may have market psychology on your side, but to pretend that MSFT's software is written to the highest standards of quality would be a mistake.>> You can substitute ANY software company for MSFT there and say the same thing. But then I don't recall any software company advertise their software and saying it is buggy. So according to your statement, all software companies are dishonest. <<Why don't you try being a technician on win9x machines and see what perceptions you get of customers' expectations versus the reality of this buggy software?>> 85% of the users of the software could care less about being a technician and are happy with the software. Most would say it meets or exceeds their expectations. Thank You JK
