Thanks for the recommendation,
All's now as clear for me as a crystal ball. May I in turn recommend
something? Since the site at which your products' info is located is not too
well organized at presenting that info in a most aesthetic way, it would be
a very good idea to post on those pages a kind of a Comparison Chart for the
DBX* programs available for sale.
Doing this, I think, will save you time and eliminate wasted time replying
to newsgroups posts. And will also save much time to the OE user thinking of
which DBX* to get for his or her OE needs. Just to give you an idea of what
I'm talking about, check out what this company has done to make comparing
their products easier for a consumer:
http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/comparison2.jsp?product4=zass&product2=zaav&product3=zap&product1=znalm&submit.x=50&submit.y=10
That's my recommendation. Thanks for yours.
