Hmmm... sounds just like Omega, except TW is 'up front' about it.

Hmmmm... sounds just like the TS100 beta, but TW is 'up front' and
honest about it.

Last I heard, VB classes are *much* less expensive than EL classes, and VB
is far more useful for other things, too - Excel, Access, even Word...

Hey - not bad. That's HALF the price that Omega charges to have us beta
test TS100.

Hmmm... sounds less expensive than Omega's fees for each copy.

Hmmm... sounds just like Omega's last "upgrade before we raise the price"
ploy for beta testing TS100. (But TW is honest about it).

Ahhh, the smell - it does remind one of the strong Miami fish stench that
*certainly* has been well-proven over the years :-).
