A while back I made some postings about my first impressions of Neodesk and
some problems I encountered, including a problem with the INSTALL program.
The latter problem was "fixed" by my dealer copying his disk onto mine. In
response,  Xorg@cup.portal.com remarked upon the dubious ethics of that
action by the dealer, which I promptly poo-poo'ed.

Well, time has come to un-poo-poo those remarks! My dealer's actions have
caused both me and Gribnif Software some problems. Gribnif has asked that I
return my disk so they can repair it AND their records. This is necessary
if I want to receive future updates (and from I've heard - I most certainly
do!).

I plan on discussing this with my dealer next time I'm in (which may be
a while after this affair).

I also want to report that Gribnif Software has earned my hard and fast
customer loyalty by sending me no less than a 3-page letter explaining, in
detail, each and every problem I wrote them about. As a result, I not only
understand Neodesk better, but I also understand TOS and some other programs
much better.

Neodesk is a great program and Gribnif is a great company!

(Disclaimer: I have no pecuniary affiliation with Gribnif Software, and the
opinions expressed here are my own, period!)
