This one is definitely in the etherealware (fumeware) category. I ordered it from Icon Review many months ago; they responded by sending me bi-weekly postcards saying they couldn't ship and did I want to wait or get my money back. I finally asked for my money back when I noticed that Icon Review no longer listed it as an available product. They didn't TELL me that fact, mind you, they just let me figure out their definition of "delay" on my own. You see what assurances of professionalism are implied by having a "big name" attached to a product? This guy pontificates well about software, but when it comes to producing it, he appears to be the rankest of amateurs. . . -Brian Diehm Tektronix, Inc.
