Can I offer another idea ... just an idea now ... what if we could somehow
deny access to ( any version of ) LEGACY for all the gotta have it now
folks, and have them do the research the old fashioned way ... with paper
and pencil?
Lord ... what a concept ...

Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] New version (slow) Release
Let's see -
Almost every genealogy society I have ever belonged to had at least one
member who was the society's expert in a particular type of gen
oftware - so there would be several thousand who should get the new
version first....
don't forget the folks we have on this list who have helped out in at
least some ways - that would be several hundred more ....
and then there are those who actually paid for the new version .....my
conservative guess another several thousand....
those who have reunions coming up and need it to make sure the gens they
hand out are the latest and greatest ...another few hundred .....
and those who have owned the product since it first came out - lets add
another few thousand .....
and then there are those who are patiently waiting until its time and who
are sure their time will come sooner than later....*smile*....add another
few thousand.
Divide those few thusands by the available download bandwidth ....
and you tell me how you determine who gets it first.
Of course we could have gotten it sooner than later and be like those who
have downloaded another well known product several times - have now
downloaded the recently released third patch to it (or fourth patch
depending on if you count the recalled patch)- and are finding out it
STILL doesn't work.....last count I think there were 113 replies of that
nature on the other product's very public blog ....and god knows how many
more in their private emails....

much easier if I wasn't deleting so many complaints about who gets what
first)

Hello everyone
I can see you all reaching to the del key know saying well here's that
guy from Brisbane, with yet another gripe !,
Could someone tell me WHY we as a LEGACY users and some of us
affiliate's, (why I'm not sure right now, the reason I joined affil
program was that it was a way of possibly raising funds for my local
Genealogy/Family history Group),
Anyway WHY is it I as a person who teaches others to use Legacy for their
research etc.. can not acquire a copy of the latest version of Legacy ?.
Honest there must be others who give time freely and are left to say the
least "with egg all over them" because they can not answer ANY questions
about the new version, except to say "Don't worry I will have time to
learn the ins and outs of the new program to be able to not only teach
new user but assist older user, Ha as usual I look like having to push
the proverbial uphill yet again.
One VERY DISAPPOINTED LEGACY FANATIC (maybe that's the problem, Millennia
think we won't go elsewhere ?.
About now I am just HURT like a lot of other existing Legacy user at end
of line [EMAIL PROTECTED]&^
