This is part of the problem.  Trying to place a product in a market 
thatgives functionallity and be able to add features to it.  The 2 
biggest complaints I have heard over the last 10 years or so is a 
windows interface and being able to print to any printer.  BTW, I have 
used Print Wizard and it is an excellent product.  I chose it when 
another program would not support XP.
