Almost spilled my morning coffee on myself. Here we are waiting patiently for a point seven something and there's a .81 waiting for me. Thank you and good job K9, you've made my day! Too bad I've got to go to work, . You all know the drill -- post how it's working for you.
So I've been running the much-anticipated upgrade (for days) and didn't know it? Oh well...now I can exhale and wait for whatever.0.something to come along. Kudos to K9!
