Jan, does this mean you’re not going to use MyInfo—or simply, as you have said before, you’ll wait until the next version?

Also, you had said earlier you had been using ADM for a lot of stuff—what was it that finally shifted you to Ultra Recall?

On a personal note, even though I do not no use UR, during the version 3 beta discussions I was one of the people pushing for a hoist command. Kinook kind of dug in their heals, and said no way. Under fairly constant pressure, Kinook changed their position, and provided v 3 with hoist capability.

I take my hat off to Kinook for their ability to do that. In my own tests of v 3 it sure makes it more user friendly. And I may go back to using it for some things.

Kinook has been one of the best software companies in terms of customer relations. And it is obviously paying off for them.
