Danny,

I haven't experienced their customer service yet but everyone I've talked to 
who has has been blown away by them.  I do have a few questions so may call 
them Monday.  But there's no question that they are aware of us, thanks to 
folks like Gary, and they even posted a textual description of the front 
panel on their web site.  I have found that to be invaluable while learning 
this thing.  Lou
