Damn where's my copy of QL Today - trouble is that people want a helping hand, but no longer turn to the user group for help and just moan rather than shouting for help.
Unlike the world of Windows, Unix and Mac users, all the QL traders are always willing to lend a helping hand and there are several sample boot programs.
My guess is (without having read the article) that QDT would have been a better solution for this user - go on Jim, persuade them to budle it with Q40/Q60.
Well I am not so sure that QDT would be right if it weren't preinstalled. Moreover, I have found SMSQ/e 3.07 to be extremely unstable on the Q40 and Q60 and QDT doesn't work that well with older versions of (stabler) SMSQ/e. QDT is a very complex piece of software engineering (kudos to Jim of course) and as such is sometimes more difficult to tune than X-Windows. For a novice I am not so sure that it would be suitable at least not right away... maybe something like Launchpad...
Of course I am probably talking out of my a## here as I have NOT YET (hehehe) received QLT (as a matter of fact not even the previous issue :-( *sniff*) So I may have not understood correctly
