Maybe yes, maybe no. I find the 'whining' to be quite useful in 
estimating how stable a new version of TS might be. This 'whining' 
estimate has saved me from *much* grief in past upgrades - I wait until 
the whining dies down, and then upgrade. (And a hearty thanks to those 
brave souls who jumped in and did the beta testing of new releases!)

If you don't like the whining, just hit delete.

I interpret 'whining' as a request for help, even without an explicit 
'help me' request, and I help if I can.

Consider this - your note would have been much more helpful to all if you
had offered a solution, would it not? What did your note contribute? Was
your note any less 'whining' than the original?

In the past I have found TS upgrades to be *very* frustrating. I try to
refrain from expressing my frustration, and just state the facts, but I
can understand how some folks might like to tell others how bad it is. 

Perhaps your upgrades have been 100% perfect. Perhaps you have an iron 
will, and nothing bothers you (except whining, of course). If so, I'm 
envious.

And there is always the possibility that you might be a shill for 
Omega. Not an accusation, just bringing it up... no offense intended 
(unless it's true :-).
