You did your due diligence in researching the package, Thom. It
is recommended by a lot of folks...
An interesting phenomemon: when someone owns a particular instrument or software package, they frequently recommend it, in spite of its obvious shortcomings.
A useful idea (when considering a purchase) is to find as many negative reviews as possible, and evaluate their concerns... True, it is very easy to criticize, and some folks seem to make a hobby of it, but they often
do have some valid information for us.
