I've been using the LPEX editor in WDSc 5 for about a week now and I have to say I do like it quite a bit (I've always been an SEU guy) and there are some potential uses that have me drooling that I just haven't gotten to yet. I haven't noticed too many speed issues after the initial connection to the 400 (in this case a fairly slow 170) is made but I do have a workhorse of a PC with 2.56GB processor and a gig of RAM. I was most surprised that the update speed back to the 400 was tremendous: practically instantaneous, even on a very large source member. Navigation is a little quirky and as with any new product there are some idiosynchracies to get used to, but other than that I think I'm going to like it a lot.
