Interesting viewpoint, and TOTALLY valid. I happen to use TSE to work with
textual data files, some of which are quite large (20-50MB). When I ask
for a sort or a compressed view, speed counts for me!
It certainly is a "big" world, and I respect that many (if not most) other
people may not "need the speed" that I crave. I just hope that they don't
abandoned the console mode product -- unless they can keep up the speed!
