I hate to appear completely ignorant- but what is Unicode and why is that

If you manufacture something that thousands are using, would you cater to one

However I would be more worried about FAG.  Its Ancestry and in Direct 
competition with My Heritage.

I guess the test will be in the pudding,  But so far you can use Legacy as it 
is for as long as your Computers can run it.
If you don't like 10 than you can keep on using what you have.  

I sure hope that the folks at Millennia get whats right in the way of Jobs and 
Compensation,  They have been a great organization since their start.
