Don - sorry to pick on you for this rant BUT ...

I NEVER SAID IT WAS FASTER ... IN FACT I NEVER SAID ANYTHING RELATED TO SPEED
_EXCEPT_ THAT I WASN'T CONVINCED THAT GUI WAS BETTER!!  AND YES IT HAS MADE ME
MAD ENOUGH TO SHOUT!

I have been mildly attacked by any number of people in this thread over things
I never said or even implied.  I will not waste my time participating further
in this or similar threads.  

People seem to only want to put out their own perspective and not actually
read and comment on what others write.
