Most bugs are due to the wide verity of systems out there. It took me a long time to get the first systems up and running bug free. I will admit there are some major small bugs (the boris effects bug seems to be poping up). But again any system will have these bigs (includeing MC 9000) You should have seen the fuss when 7.0 came out. > Anyone considering an MCX system should have this information.

Your right, there are problems, and I will admit Nt is not perfect, but it is cheap.If I had a choic I would buy an Xpress, but they is also 20K differance. Steve
