When I read the complaints regarding new betas I find that I cannot duplicate most of them or that the poster is expressing a personal opinion based on the way they like for things to work. If I can duplicate the behavior the poster describes I report it to Elecraft and it gets fixed (usually in the next day or so).

It's your choice not to do so. I'm sorry you don't like computers, but once again, that is in keeping with making your own choice. >And I suspect there are quite a few guys like me. > >If everyone is supposed to load the beta releases, what is the purpose of a >regular release?
