Sorry, but I can't agree with your assertion that input from system administrators has been "largely ignored." On the contrary, a great number of decisions have been the result of years of input, feedback, and other considerations. I'm aware of your feelings about "making the old tools better"; but quite frankly, I think most developers will tell you that just isn't a practical option. -- Shawn Walker
