Sandy, I did not mean to come off as negative at all.. All I was saying is that the book is not shipping yet, and not a great deal of documentation is available yet... making it more difficult for people to get involved during the alphas and betas. I don't begrudge anyone, nor am I ungreatful for the free architectures that are provided... I am sorry I cam off that way.
