Hello all,
back from vacation and catching up on email.

I am getting a little uncomfortable continuing this thread on this list, it
is way off topic and my original post was intended only to provide some
basic info. However, I would be glad to continue a dialogue off list and,
though I can't promise you'll see your suggestions and wishes all
implemented (I am not King Of The Forest), I do definitely take notes. 

Would be nice to get together on the air some time.

Ron, =20

I am a long time user of FS and its predecessor's products.  I have been
lobbying for a combined SMA as the cost for each package adds up quickly.
So far no luck.  So much for product loyalty? =20

As for the HW alternative, I agree that it is even more expensive.  It may
be possible since I work for an agency  and deal with a large variety of
various units I am more sensitive than some however. =20

The comments about a combined SMA  are however personally based.  Even at
that to upgrade my own copy of JFW is more than $400 which is a hefty bite
considering it is time to upgrade my pc anyway.  I am already at $3000 and
counting on that score inclusive of access software and productivity
software as well. =20
  Ah well my wife says it is only money.  She is not from Scotland. =20
