Perhaps I could have used a better word then "expecting". What I  
meant was that I was told that the "new" version would be *so* much  
better, I fell for this a few times before I wised up! I now don't  
believe the hype and therefore I don't automatically get the latest  
update. A lot of other people felt the same way which is why they  
have embarked on the Beta program and will issue a free bug fix  
release. Which is a good thing and the least they could do!

I agree, but I get it free anyway since we bought a version of 2.7.x

Good for you!

God knows what that's all about! I'm as light as a light thing in a  
very light place!

All I want is a version whereby is doesn't look like it's been thrown  
together by a bunch of second rate hackers working out of a garage!

I have been using Intel Macs for quite a while now and they are very  
stable, more so than the PowerPC when it first took over from the 68K.

Take Care and Have a Great Weekend
All the Best
