This isn't a very broad sampling--but folks I know who have gotten Shepherds from there say in the past, oh, 5 years, have felt that there were less problems. Let me do some checking for you and for Mary and for whoever else interested. Maybe Brad Scott can discuss the Shepherd thing since Leader, I think, uses them. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!382!60!Margo.Downey Internet: Margo.Downey@f60.n382.z1.fidonet.org
