Bill,
     You mean sort of like GWMicro with their Vocal-Eyes manual and
demo, and Omnichron and their Flipper demo and manual, and TinyTalk
from Eric INc. with its program and manual, and come to think of it,
most every piece of shareware out there!

     Yes, it is nice for Blazie to supply their manual before purchase,
but let's give credit where it's due to the others as well!
                                                        Willie

Willie, thanks for supplying that perspective about the mnual.  I
wasn't meaning to imply that other companies hadn't or wouldn't do the
same.
Interestingly enough, Eric called me the other day and showed me how
the his synthesizer sounded.  Even over the phone I was able to hear it
quite clearly.  Obviously this doesn't answer all questions, but at
least now when I hear other people put it down or otherwise refer to it
I'll be able to refer to my own experience.

Bill
