I guess I must have bought the wrong machine. I thought that any company selling ANY product would have a keen interest in what it's users/consumers thought of the product. A "lets make it for deveolpers and see if anyone else will buy the beast" attitude is hardly likely to make an impact on the buying public. Who is qualified to beta test, then? Software writers whose main interest is putting in "hooks" so it will interface with their own software? Hardware engineers whose interest is to see that their ideas of what should be attached after market could be included? If the hardware/software is broken, even those common users you seem to be so down upon should be able to pick up on it. OK, so maybe they won't pick up on the AREXX hooks being faulty, but they should be able to know when the machine GURUs on power up, or the mouse pointer locks in place whenever a certain icons is chosen. AND… those things are just the types of things that will drive the buying public away from a machine, not the lack of AREXX or whatever. I am now going out to get my brain washed, so maybe I can forget what ENDCLI means. Bill, K3OZM
