Bryan,
Agree completely about AR9, but it is huge and has many nag msgs. I can
hang with it because it does work very nicely. I think some more now about
"AIR." I do depend on the Sun Java JRE business; it is the only way I can
view the NIST sites for proper time. I am still playing with various "time
server" apps I can run on my server to automate LAN time. I have 2
machines that just can not keep time worth a damn! LOL! I'll figure this
out this year!
Thanks,
Duncan

Duncan,
No AR from Adobe is fine and I use it myself. 9 is fast and a lot
better than previous versions. You will most likely not have a use for
AIR unless you want to toy around with the available apps here and
there. Think of it as the new 'java' ;)
