My sentiments entirely JB
There has been an awful lot of comments on the geek forums on the roxio/norton/M$ (sorry Microsoft) habit of inserting DLL's that do not uninstall. There was I recall an advisory from MS not six months back that if you installed Roxio 5 and upgraded to media player 7.1 it would hard crash your system because media player had cd rom burning software built in. MS advised not using Roxio and reinstalling the OS.
There is nothing more frustrating than having software go tits up (technical term).
CL was under immense pressure to produce P5, not only financial, but pressure from this very forum. I remember some of the threads from three of four months back when Steve Cooper first put up some P5 screenshots that the
pressure built and built until really CL had to do something or lose total credibility.
I lucky enough have a stable but slow P5 and I'm happy waiting for the wrinkles to be ironed out of SR1.
I agree with Hein, though. I'm just completing an order for components to build a poser only machine - 1000 so far counting.
