nope, same version. I double checked, and of course, you are correct. I have no idea why I thought they were radio buttons though! I guess I need to go back to the scrolls of winamp, from the information and knowledge of the elders passed down to us from centuries gone by, and start my review all over again! I will make my voyage to the hidden catacombs, and begin my review of the sacred scrolls by candle light. Do they have electricity in those places? I don't think Kurzweil works too good all on its own!LOL! Ok, I'm done, back to winamp discussions!
