	I've been using DPL on and off now for about a year and a half.
	It never crashes on me! I especially like the Posters program.
	I've done sinfle page posters up to 5page x 5page size with
	no problems. I've heard of others doing wall size (8'x8') with
	not problems (other then using hugh amounts of ink). I don't 
	know what Ottmars problem's could have been caused by.
	For the record I have 5megs on a 68k A2000.
	And I thought DPaint was non-HAM?
	My gripe is why has EA abandoned any upgrades or enhancements
	to Deluxe PhotoLab? I would like to see the Paint program
	enhanced to give better brush tools, among other things.
	I'm dreaming now, but I'd really like to see Deluxe PhotoLab Prof.
	strictly for 24bit!!!!
