You are right in that the purpous of the ten minutes is to be annoying and to get one to buy the program. BUT, since Executor is still under developement and does not appear to be coming out with the commercial version 2.0, I wouldn't even think of buying it (no offense to the people at Ardi). Until a fully tested, fully feature-implimented version comes out, the ten minute limit would not work and get me to buy Executor. For the time being, and unless Ardi wants to get rid of the ten minute timer all together, a small clock indicating time left would be helpful. Veeder South IV vsouth@primenet.com
