Nah, guys. Sorry.

They did blink when Paul first switched over to this software. He made the switch later.

You guys were just too late to see it.

Something to be said about being the early bird, I suppose.

J-man!

TF's right - you really are mad, but hey in for a penny in for a pound.

Phillip Anderton

Wants: a Classic Series '60s Stratocaster in Shell Pink. A Vintage White AM Telecaster and a 2004 LP Standard in Desert Burst. Those three added to my collection would probably ease the GAS pangs forever? (Naw, then I'd start wanting better amps.)
