Portmaster-Users,

Last post from me on this I promise ;-)

Last Thursday evening around 9:30PM reading email at home I got an email
containing information regarding a soon to be published edition of
Boardwatch Magazine. As any of you who have been here long enough would
realize, I've been here 4 years now (employee 21), and take criticism of
our products very seriously (some might say too seriously ;-)

Jack Rickards input in the email to which I'm referring implied that the
Portmaster "sucked". After careful consideration of my response and opinion
of Jack relative to Boardwatch being subject to advertising driving
editorial opinion was way off base.

Just as emotion sometimes takes over when someone attacks one of your
family, that is exactly what happened last Thursday. I took a low shot for
which I am sincerely apologetic. I spoke with Jack at length this morning,
and believe that his ethics are beyond reproach and in fact believe they
are very similar to Livingston/Lucent's.

I _am_ concerned about the supposed methodology of the soon to be published
Boardwatch testing of X2 and K56Flex, which promises to be an interesting
event ;-) I am very interested in the facts being told accurately (as is
Jack), and hope that we can work together to insure that this is exactly
what happens!

Regards,
