The last thing I want to do is to criticize your software

Hi, I did not take it that way ;) Neither to Robert's remarks.

?

In general I love positive critisism. It only makes the product better ( I think many members of this and other Fora can witness taht ) . But also I have my, more or less strong, opinion on how our software should look and feel like... Referring to Win 95 maybe helps you, but I have to tell you, that back then I was already programming for windows (3.11 ;) ) And the one thing I always followed, were the MicroSoft GUI guidelines. And still I am doing so. That in the same time does not always have to be the best, but it's a guarantee for consistency over my Apps and the OS and with that also other Apps. MicroSoft advises to let your App's look and feel to blend with the OS. And basically that's what I have been doing for over 30 years now :) ( and the last couple of years for YaMoRC :) )

?

And yes, I understand the need for a lot of products we announced when we first started. The estimates were quite realistic back then... But what really made the S hit the F was:

- 1st an unbelievable good reception of our portfolio ( 5-fold more demand than expected )

- 2nd an even bigger resonance to the YD9401 ( which started of more or less as a joke... :) )

- 3rd DK's bankruptcy and with that a lot of troubles, as well in the area of quadruple- 10 tenfold demand, but mainly because of people thinking we were a) tha cause of the bankruptcy and b) the successors.?

I can tell you that mai june an july were far from pleasant months to be representing YaMoRC...?

?

All that S caused development to grind to an halt, even in areas where the chip crisis did not hit us. So we are facing our worst nightmare, something we also wanted to avoid: Backlog, Backorder, Delay and Cancellation...

So, yes it will all come. We are are a healty company, we can invest in goods. Just time ist the factor in the moment that we're missing dire.
