I can't say I disagree with you, indeed...I just say that this seems to be it is a design choice. BUT, I may be wrong. Let's see comments about this BR. There has already been strange things in the past with "Back" buttons. > > Especially, if what you describe is what hapenned, I first switched to > "medium" when hitting "back" in the layout list, and only to "high" after > seeing the "AT vs. USB" one.

No, if what I described is correct, you started at "high" then were lowered to "meidum" , then "low" > > > > Thus, you were on main menu at medium priority. > > > > Choosing back lowered the priority again.....and you end up with > > installing at "low" priority and be prompted on about everything.... > > s/low/high/ I suppose ? No, really "low". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
