I agree. I think that comp.software-eng.multimedia is poor. This
group is to talk about multimedia as a whole. I personally am not
interested in doing any kind of software engineering. I'd much rather
have some computer guru develop the programs. I just want software
that I can plug and play. :-)
It sure would be nice if we had a productivity tool that would allow me
to design a multimedia presentation for my discipline without having to
learn about programming. I'm pretty good at clicking buttons and
ticking boxes and selecting from lists. :-)
I'm sorry, it's been a bad few months and i'm a bit crazy!!!!
