I don't give a damn about their business practices. I bought Jaws because it 
was in my opinion the best product on the market at the time. I spend a week 
every year looking at new products and still think Jaws is by far the better 
choice. But I have enjoyed this conversation and would be glad to carry it 
on off list if you'd like. Feel free to contact me privately any time.



Thanks; Gene
