These guys are *good* and VirtSpace really shows it. The auto-scrolling feature is incredibly slick. No, it isn't a new idea but it showed some really creative thinking in the way they pulled it off. So, in summary - Dave and Garrick, good. VirtSpace, cool. Auto-Scrolling, slick. VirtSpace3.0, coming soon.........
