While it didn't screw up my machine, it was slow as molasses to use, and was simply too buggy. Copy-paste sample code and compile, you'd get errors. Delete it, paste it again, and compile it; and it would work. :confused: I threw it out *really* fast and have never installed a beta after that. Cheers, Vikram. "But nowadays, it means nothing.
