    Subject: Kitlog Pro v2 - *My opinion*
    From: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@Sausen.net>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@Sausen.net> Guys, Just thought you all might want to know I am very impressed with v2 of Kitlog. Although it isn't released quite yet, I begged and pleaded for Paul to send me a beta copy of it because of my familiarity with beta products (day job has me designing large computer infrastructures) and the fact that my Emp kit was arriving post haste (actually arrived yesterday). Even in it's pre-release form, Kitlog Pro v2 is very stable and functional and I was able to jump right in and start adding information without the need for even an instruction manual. Very intuitive and straight forward. I am quite happy with it. While it's not free, I would rather pay a little and have a full product with support than spend time putting something together myself or trying to figure out a free product. I figure it pays for itself if it saves me 3 hours of puttering around in Excel or Access trying to do something similar. Again, that's just me. Just wanted to put in my 2 cents, I know Paul is anxious to get it out the door but I believe he is more concerned with a quality product. I know in my industry, having software that is functional is much better than something that is hastily released to meet the executive and marketing schedules. Now then, please don't flame me and I don't work for Paul. I just thought he deserved some credit for the hard work he has been doing. Michael

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@Sausen.net> Crate arrived yesterday and I'm number 40352. BTW, I'm about 30 minutes south of the I35w and I20 interchange in FtWorth right off of I35w in a little town called Grandview. Anyone else in the South FtWorth area?
