I've thought and supposed on the same lines and fact is that I feel it's inapropiate to be kept totally in the the dark, this way. The boxed version dropping on my doormat tomorrow wouldn't change that feeling. Fact is I don't even know what I bought (boxed download version or power pack or whatever) at the time. I just wanted to contribute. I don't want a pat on the back but I don't want to feel forgotten either. At least now I know I'm not the only one in the dark:o) I hope somebody at Mandrake takes the hint and realizes one sometimes has to throw a bone into the pack to keep it happy and make it feel useful. Harm.
