Hey Pat, don't hurt your arm patting yourself on the back there!!!Seriously though this is good news. Any time 'Our' OS gets this sort of recognition it's a good thing. It's still up to each shop to properly implement things, this at least says it can be done. A potential sales edge when up against those 'lesser OSs' :o)
