Insulting people? Guess you haven't been following the thread, have you.

So, you admit you had a problem with Pinnacle in the late 90's. How long
ago was that? Have you tried any of their new products? We both know the
answer to that.
And, even you admit that Pinnacle has made a lot of money. IF their
products were so bad for so long, why to they continue to make money?

I am sure they do. And there is a large number that disagree. For the
most part, if something is working fine, you don't read reviews or
comments on it. What you will read is if someone is having a problem.
And, there are some that would rather fixate on the problems than on the
successes.

I guess you would rather fixate on the problems....
