Hello, First impression: it worked. I copied it to CD and used it that way, waiting for it to auto-run, which it did...eventually. This version was considerably slower in all phases than the previous version for me. This may well be because of the million applications (streaming quotes, news) I have open in the mornings. I will try it again later this afternoon to confirm. It might be helpful, even for those who are 'beta testers' if we had a README up top to tell people what to copy to the CD if they want to try it as a CD rather than off their desktop (meaning don't copy the vicaya-0.1.6 directory, but it's contents. As previously noted, the small system tray icon comes off as a gray blur on my PC. It may not be recognizable as belonging to ATI or the Vicaya tool. On the other hand the icon that takes over the CD Drive icon looks great. For the casual user there should be a clear way to exit, not the two-step that is needed now. I would like to see: exit from browser exits from the CD which is what the user expects. Most users will not think of right-clicking the system icon and will also not know how to exit from the command prompt (PC). ? An exit button that lies behind the browser as a pop-under window? It may be that I should retract the previous comment concerning the automatic exiting of the command prompt at opening. Ta.n p'assa taadisam'eva,|| ta.n p'assa taadisam'evaa.|| Six of one, half a dozen of the other as to the issue of wondering what it is doing versus wishing it wern't there to deal with at the end. Take Care! obo |
