Indeed, I am aware of the learning curve.  However, the problem was in
finding the programs to do the things I wanted, and then having to
change the way I did things, like front end formats.  I would have had
to do BSO type packets for most of the software I could find.
Unfortunately, that is happening even in the windows world.  Taurus
will only do BSO it seems.
