Remember what I said last week about software?

I've never seen a version of software that did not have BUGS.  I always
expect it.  One thing about getting a new version first.  You are the one to
get bugs first.

Patience folks, of course someone has to be first, but personally, I like my
software like my fine wine............reasonably aged.   Let the others get
the "green" stuff.
