In fairness, it was a very early beta version, and I am sure the final version will much slicker, but I will not be looking to upgrade in a hurry. I love new toys - but this one was NO fun!

Off to look for other toys to play with......
cariad thanks for that. I know a beta tester who is very impressed with it but from what I have read, I agree with your assessment of it. In addition, I'm very happy with XP & IE 6 except for their security issues. Hell they're even exploiting more and more holes in the Office products. They need to set some serious examples of these hackers that they actually catch.
