Thanks. If they would have asked me to write the one for DirMX it wouldn't
have been as positive though. Mostly due to the lack of 3D updates . . .

Figured :)

I couldn't agreem more.

I dunno? I guess since I have a product review in GD I felt a little bit of
a need to back them up. Of course you were joking, and I realize that, so I
probably didn't need to write anything. I guess I just haven't written
enough e-mails for a weekend yet :)

Absolutely. Hopefully I'll be able to read the review next weekend, and
then I can comment more on what it actually covered.
