An observation, Ken. It wasn’t so long ago that Kinook could do no wrong. UR was the wonder kid on the block. More recently, we are hearing repeated complaints about error messages, and my observation is that the K team is not as quick at replying to messages as they once were.

And we still have a help file that seems more aimed at telling us what the software will do rather than how we might do it.

All of this may mean something—or nothing.

At this point I nostalgically, yet again, open up ADM for a while, and play around with it until the common sense strikes home that it makes no sense to commit to using software when it is not clear the developer is still committed to developing it. Contrary to what some have said, I think ADM had more going for it than UR—at least from a writer’s perspective.

So I wait for the new Zoot, and the new MyInfo, and wonder how the new version of MD InfoHandler will play out.
