Wonderful. Not only is the 1.0 stuff buggy, but even their patches have bugs! Also, without a connection to COMPUSERVE, you cannot test your patch work. I can expect the usual people to flame this too and say '1.0 sw is allowed to be buggy', and of course the standard 'how long have you been in PC sw?' and I will probably get a 'you have to wait for the patch patches'.
