I have to agree! Some folks seem to be getting downright evangelical!

I'm certainly in the market for something with more punch than the current  
incarnation of WriteNow and PasteUp was on the candidate list due to lack of  
information. It happens to turn out that it's missing the features that I'm  
looking for and the posting verified that.

I personally prefer this type of posting. After all, I want my machine to make  
my life easier not harder. Pointers to other sources aren't as convenient as  
just reading it in-line.
