Paul,

thanks for the comments. Wow, someone has seen LocoSnap, I thought now one
ever looked into it. It is a fun toy, I use it every now and then when I
need to take shots from stacks. Skitch is loosing its appeal since it was
acquired by Evernote.

I think I will migrate directly to Mountain Lion because I am felling
adventurous.

Cheers
andre
