Joe, Thank you for the link. I don't think it does you or your company any good or any credit to slam another product by saying that they artificially drive up the price, when you have exactly 0 clue as to what goes into their pricing model. They have a whole Lotta features that you do not have and probably never will have. Maybe some people don't need them, but
