Sorry Dilwyn, your problem was not directly related to QPC, I do not
think it was appropriate for this group. I wonder if a Mac user of
Q-Emulator would have gotten the same reaction from you. This is why
the Norwich Quanta group barely exists now, an ex-Quanta committee
member insinuated that we do not exist right in front of us. This
the slippery slope to oblivion.
