Well, I can see your point, Rich.

But he did say:

I'll be serious now. And hope you're not offended. As said, just made some fun.

I doubt it would have come across 'in real life' in the way you seem to have taken it.

I have read this part several times, but I am no wiser as to what it means. Can someone, anyone, break this down into something I can chew on properly?

Why should standards be any lower just because people can hide behind computers?

Richard,

I didn't make my point well enough, obviously. I've got a few friends from the low countries and their 'bluntness' can be disconcerting at first to us reserved, buttoned-up Brits. It's not rude, just direct - and it doesn't translate well on the screen. If you read his post with a Dutch accent in mind then it makes sense - to me anyways.

I read it in a Dutch accent, en ik versta er nog steeds geen moer van! Maybe we need a supplementary translation device from the coffee shop

?

I am with Lovejoy on this one. I have tried to get the demo working on my Vista laptop with no joy, I would begrudge paying £5 for whats on offer never mind the full asking price, there are far better freeware programs around.
