Hello ED:

The three initials (SMA) in my message stand for Software Maintenance
Agreement.

If I have misunderstood your question, please let me know and I will do my
best to clarify the information.

My opinions about Microsoft, are well known on this list.  So, I will not
write any more on that subject.

Sincerely:

Dave Durber
