Perhaps this conversation could share a little insight on why they are fond of Coherent, (Joachim???), and what they use it for. I ask this out of desperation as I am still within my 60 day return privledge window, and just can't see the advantages of this program over a MSDOS multitasking system. Perhaps some advice on the easiest way to learn and how to begin would help. Thanking you in advance.
