[CQ-Contest] CT vs. N1MM

I am always changing things up here, trying to keep contesting interesting.
One thing that is cool that you can do with N1MM is go minimalist. You can
make it almost as simple as CT or TR by just keeping the number of open
windows low, and the number of features that are "turned on" low also. I am
set up for cwss with just the entry window, a log window, and a mults worked
window. I guess what I am trying to say is that it seems very complicated,
at first, when compared to a program that has everything displayed in one
low-res DOS screen. However, it really does not need to be. And, it already
supports the getscores.org site.
