Re: Power tools/toys?

Ultimate Extra's could be considered power toys.

They are being made and will be available soon.

There is 3rd party Tweak VI and you can try it (partal functionality):

Sorry, I did not get the Ultimate version, so I suffer? <g>

Maybe there will be some toys/tools sometime. Maybe a FAX module for us poor
Home Premium users. Poor us.

Handle with care! There's a nuclear power under this shell. <g>

Seriously though, I wouldn't consider it "a toy" nor would I recommend it to
general public.

True. Of course, the general public would have a hard time using it
to get it to cause havok.

Ok, fair enough guys. Point made. Perhaps it was a bit irresponsible to
post that - but we were talking 'power tools'.

Apologies to anyone who succeeded in hosing their entire system as the
result of my tip.
