Greg,

Sorry, I've been in Hotlanta visiting my parents with the kiddies, so I'm
weighing in  WAAYYY LATE on this.

But, for what it's worth, I'm a poster child for "weak, infantile users...
who could never program their way out of a paper sack..."

And have been since ever looking at Hypercard.

It's true that you will see alot of "real" geeks on this list, but please
don't confuse that with a bunch of folks who don't want to help the rest
of us age/experience-limited folk.

People may well laugh themselves nearly hysterical whenever I post some
stupid question or other, but they nearly also always answer polititely
and with real answers!  And they mostly laugh to themselves or with me.

I, too, would like to see some Roadster-ish plug-in..  not because I think
net-delivery is superior to CD-delivery, but because that is what the
lowest common denomenator desires (which perhaps makes it superior in a
marketshare sense).

Don't give up!!

Judy
