KM> I wasn't part of that discussion, but I'd hardly say matters have KM> improved much. Just a couple hours ago, we had two betas released KM> back to back because the first one was broken. For some. I have not had a "broken" one yet. Each beta I have tested in this cycle downloads my email and I can read it. I'm not saying that people who have problems should be ignored nor am i saying that there arent improvements to be made. >> I would say that while I'm not a professional chef, I can judge when >> food is palatable to me, when it has too much salt etc. Usually when >> it isn't spicy (piquant) enough, it's way to hot for others to eat, >> but my tongue still knows. Past that, however, I tend to defer to the >> experts on lots of the technical matters. KM> We can keep going down the analogy road . . . KM> Say you order a steak, and it comes back uncooked. You might see some KM> grill marks, but it's quite evident it hasn't been cooked. Presuming KM> you've actually cooked before, and probably do so on a regular basis, KM> you've got a pretty good idea what the problem is. Certainly you know KM> what the symptoms are. Would you not then be equipped to pas KM> judgement on the chef's process? Or do you really feel that all you KM> can say is "this steak is too rare"? I'd ask for a raw egg and have steak tartare... Btw is there such a thing as undercooking a steak? Personal preference I suppose. Still as they say if life gives you lemons... Anyway what I'm prattling on about is that we all want to use TB! We want it to be the best it can be. Sometime I do feel some people do get overly vitriolic about things but then there are entitled to express there opinions and I have no problem with people feeling committed to TB! (or maybe the money they spent on purchasing it). It will get there of that I have no doubt. -- Have Fun, |> |> |>en is |\ohop [EMAIL PROTECTED] crashing The Bat! v3.5.36 falling out of mid air with Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.70GHz 598 MHz 1.00GB RAM "Women need a reason to have sex!
