So you've swapped on manufacturer's bullshit for another. So you've been
sold AXP on the basis that some Hollywood productions use Film Composer and
some TV programmes are cut with Adrenaline/Symphony etc? I thought you made
fundamentalist Christian programmes serving a neo conservative demographic
for a cable station. Well done in getting into Hollywood.

Mug and one born every minute springs to mind!

Since you like statistics,doc, here's one for you. 100% of Xpress Pro
installations fail to utilise dual processors or dual core processors
effectively.....
