To All;

I've used it professionally and it works great.  Other companies like
Hewlett Packard, Tektronics and Sony as well as others use it in their
service and production operations.

A word of caution.  If you think a little does a little bit of good and
therefore a lot should be better ...... best think again.  Use it ONLY
like the manufacturer suggests.  Least is best.
