Back when I was involved with some GUI work, we called this type of thing ETM, or Entertain The Monkey. It started out as little cute animated graphics like pieces of paper moving from one folder to another. It then graduated to marketing hype presented during installation. The best was back in the days of DOS when the system would crash, yet the progress indicator routine running as a TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident - remember those :-) would continue to run. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 1 duet, 1 receiver.
