This is it. :) With software, you almost always have to make concessions
in the form of work-arounds or just doing without a particular feature.

TB! and most other software I use in a similar way, have to be used with
this in mind. Now *this* is where the list is invaluable. Even good
documentation will not contain the work-arounds and means of maximizing on
particular features. List members will suggest things you never thought
of, even though an explanation of the functionality is sitting right
there in the help files. It's one thing to explain how something works
and it's another to explore what can be done with it and how
functionality can be used to make up for shortcomings elsewhere.

Finally, the worse thing one can do, is to stubbornly insist that the
new application do *everything* the same way the old application did.
