Dom GUILTY! I'm the one who likes the manual. The reason is that I had no trouble setting up the program using the manual with the exception of two minor inaccuracies. Either I got a newer manual rev, or it goes to show you how hard it is to please a widely varied audience. It reads well as a reference. For a less experienced user, perhaps an addendum with more examples showing different outcomes of differnet setting would help, but I don't feel it should be mixed into the existin manual. That is becuase as a reference it is easy to locate the info, read a few sentences and et on with the job. I DON'T like the types that make you read 90 lbs of fluff before they get to the critical information. I like even less those that are so "concise" that they leave stuf out altogether. wmc – via Autopilot!
