I'm not going to be marketing it.  Discussions are under way with several
"re-distributors" who would do the actual marketing.  Apparently there is
money to be made in the $10 "throw-away-money" market.  Anyway, I just write
it, I don't care who buys it or why.  In any case, my understanding is that
the intended market is friends and relatives of computer-savvy people, not
the computer-savvy people themselves.  You may have a big dsl pipe but I'll
bet your parents don't.

As to whether linux people would use it, that's beyond my understanding.
Are there non-computer-savvy people using linux who had their pc set up by
others, who could benefit from gut-simple software?  I know there are
non-gurus using macs.  I gave my mom a mac and she is really challenged by
AOL.  This app would be great for her.

As to your problem:  What version are you using?  I've been fixing bugs like
crazy the last few days.  I think it is settling down now.  Try the latest
version.  If you still have problems let me know.

P.S.  If you don't mind, extend the testing all the way to using PayPal.  I
promise that I'm reversing all charges at the end of beta testing.  (I know
that may sound suspicious, but I really am honest :)
