Well I certainly didn't mean to create any bad sentiment towards the 
developers.  I only wanted to know the "average wait time" - so I would 
know when to contact them if my key had not arrived.  I understand a lot 
people do this for the love of the hobby and not for mega personal profit.

In regards to Chris's statement "Business is Business", I can understand 
where that would come from.  If you go to the DX4WIN Europe web site it 
sounds like the business is run by one person, Guy -ON4AOI.  If you go 
to the main DX4WIN web site it sounds like a major business, Rapidan 
Data Systems.   Depending on where you look, a person would draw a 
different idea from each of the sites.

So I agree with Jim and people shouldn't get mad at the developers, they 
are people too (just two of them it sounds like).  I'll continue to wait 
for the license keys.

Be happy !!!
